Some may beg to differ on this question ,I've heard a few bad review's on the 340 Axis's and have now been shooting them for 1 1/2 year's and I absolutely don't believe too much of what i've read .I really like the thin shaft of the Axis's and I've had no problem's with them ,I also fletched them with the 2" Blazer's and they work real sweet ,so you've made a great Choice .I found that by putting the Blazer's on that my arrow weight decreased by 9 gr total arrow weight .I'm sure you'll be pleased .

I too use 340s with blazers and I like how they fly. No problems other than a doe I shot falling and breaking a shaft. It was a good trade, freezer meat for an arrow.

Blazers are the toughest vane I have found. I sometimes get a complete pass thru with some layered targets and the blazers are great. I got tired of replacing my other vanes. For my money blazers are the best.

I dont know about the vanes but as for the axis I pesonaly love them. I have taken many deer with them and never had one brake unless i did something stupid like shot one in to the other.the only thing i wish they would do is come out with a .003 straightness version in the same gpi range. I am in the proses of putting 2.25 quickspins on them. I hope they hold up and shoot good, i havnt really seen that many people shooting the quickspins so i am kinda just giveing them a try.

My dad shoots those arrows and he loves them. And as far as blazers go, I just got all of my arrows refletched with them and I have shot a couple of my arrows and they still look and shoot new.

Love the Axis.... not familiar with the Blazers but after all of the postings on them in the last few weeks I may try them next.
