Default recommended vane for a wb

I am currently using blazer vanes for my wb. I was wondering if I should try dura vanes as I have heard they will stabalize the arrow better while in flight. What are some pros and cons of shooting both types through a wb.

I personaly think Blazers are the perfect vane for the WB rest. I don't think you will accomplish anything by switching.

If I'm not mistaken, Blazers were designed specifically for the WB. I shot a WB for several years...starting with 4" vanes and later switching to Blazers and I liked them much better.

Stick with the Blazers. They have less surface area for the WB to interfere with.

The blazers are ideal for the WB. Long term WB shooting will not harm their shape.

In fact, their durability makes them a good selection for any rest.

Iuse the 4 inch Duravanes. I shoot 2413's and 2215 aluminums with an arrow weight close to 490gr. They fly great and have no durability issues (with my setup).
