The way they drive my fixed blade heads into the bullseye everytime.

Just give them a try...you don't even need to invest any money. They will send you a free sample to try out.

They stabilize as good as a 5" feather, and don't mind if they get wet. They are also rigid enough to withstand the abuse of the whisker buscuit.

The reason they stabalize an arrow so well is because they are so rigid and don't flap. They have a taller profile also to aid in stability.

Actually, they DON'T have a taller profile....they just get to that height at a steeper angle, eliminating cavitation.

This is what blazers have done for me. This was from 25 yards and have done the same from between 20 and 30 yards since switching over to blazers in September. The arrow you see here was one that I know has probably been shot at least 1000 times (I was about to go broke doing this to my Carbon Express arrows).


Your results may vary, but this is why I like 'em.

I've got them and shot them quite a bit. They work and I believe it's because of the stiffer material and tall profile. I don't think they are the ONLY vane to use. Fletching them with helical leaves little angle on the finished arrow because of the short length of the vane. I'm going to be looking for a lower profile 4 inch vane with the stiff material this year

well if you are looking for a stiff 4 inch vane then get dura vanes. They have that hard material. I like them and they shot good and they have a stiff vane like blazers.

Blazers guide the arrows very nicely, even with broadheads on and they are super durable. Longest lasting vane I have ever used! It is going to be very hard to get me to change to a different vane!

I've used the duravanes, feathers, quik spins 4", and the 2" speed hunters and the Blazers. They all work just fine. The blazer does work and no questions and holds up better than the others for me.
