Default refletching my arrows any ideas

i have quikspins on my arrows have since i bought the bow.
i like them i have got great groups even telescoped a arrow got it on the wall.

I am getting my arrows redone. Season starts the 1st of oct. i will be getting a target in a week or so.

Should i think of switching to differnt vanes i thought about going to the new quickspins that are made to hold up better.
or am i better off waiting untill after season when i get new arrows.

I don't believe the Quickspins to be better than Blazers but never having used them, I'm sure they are as adequate.

Personally, I'd go Blazers or 4" feathers then the new Quickspins but whichever you decide, definately use them with a helical or offset.

yes i mean robin hooding it.
i saw a myth busters eps. where they said it was impossable. i did it as a kid and did it with in a month of owning my current bow.
i have not shot blazers
there the only one i have been shooting since i was 13 about 10 years.
With in a week of shooting the guy running the pro shop i bought it at said i could out shoot most people shooting 3d there. he said the guy who won the week before had worst groups then i did.
They work great for me. last year i went to gandertwice to check my bow out and make sure i was dead on i was.
When i was in ky after i got the bow. i wastearing the fleatchs up my groups were so close.

I think there great properly going to stay with them no reason to mess with something working. i guest

well when you decide on which vanes you like better, you should get blue and white vanes. those would look really cool and they would be easy to spot.

I like Blazers, but never used Quickspins. Also, see how much extra they would charge for cresting. A friend crested mine with a reflective tape. It is easy to spot and didn't change the flight of my arrows.
