Default Who Makes the Best Vanes?

Who do you think makes the best all around plastic vanes on the market today as far as durability and best looking colors?

From looking around my shop at the endless amounts of Bohning products I' m gonna have to take this opportunity to plug Bohning[:-] I' ve been using their products for many years with no complaints!

My current set of bohning vanes has been fired 1000' s of times through my whisker biscuit , countless times completely through my 3d target , and one of them has been through two deer.

Show me something better! I haven' t had a customer complain yet about the bohning vanes I use on their arrows.

I have used both Duravanes and Bohning Vanes in the past. I shoot with a Whisker Biscuit, and both hold up very well.

Flex Fletch, no doubt. Had dura vanes on my matrix arrows when I got them and within a month I had refletched them all due to nicks and coming off in the delta target. I put flex fletch on them and have only re done a couple in the past six months. They are expensive but well worth it IMO.

I used to use the Eason Diamond Vanes 4.75" , since they have stopped producing that size, I have moved to the AAE, which many people have told me make the Eason Vanes. Personnally I can tell no difference between the two except for the little easton symbol and the price.

I have been very happy with AAE vanes. I don' t know if they' re " the best" , but I' ve had zero problems with them, so it' s just another of those things I' m not fixing since it ain' t broke.
