I have fletched some new shafts with the Bohning Blazer 2" vanes and fletched the others with the Easton Diamond 4" vanes. Curiously enough, the 4" Diamond vaned arrows always produce better groups. My fletching is not hitting the rest and it doesn't matter if I shoot cockbird up or down. I'll alternate shooting each arrow. Perhaps some more intense tuning is needed, but so far I am leaning toward stripping the Blazers off and fletching all with the Easton Diamond 4" vanes.
A shop owner in Michigan, a fellow Oneida shooter that I talk to on the Oneida forums, is sending me some Blazers too try out before I buy 100 pack. Ill report back.
Let me know how it turns out DK. I really like the Blazers and think I just need to tweak some things. Its very possible that my Blazer fletched shafts are revealing something, in fact I am almost sure it is so, but the fact remains the Diamond fletched shafts are shooting great at varying yardages.
Same arrows and the Blazers are a little lighter in weight.
Anyway, did some tiller tuning at 40 and 50 yards this evening, got the Blazers to group as well as the Easton Diamonds, and all it took was 1/4 turn of a limb bolt.

Yep. By changing the tiller you changed the way the a$$ end was coming out of the bow. The 4" vanes came out lower than the blazers. Your foc was different.
Maybe its a tuning issue but........
