RE: Durable vanes
Duravane "Savage" , Flex Fletch anything, and Vanetec are head and shoulders above the rest for durability. Flex Fletch and Vanetec are a little bit critical to get good adhesion but the Duravane Savage are pretty straight forward.
All 3 are pretty much bulletproof.
Blazers and Duravane "Predators" are tough inthe new short length high profile "broadhead" vanes.
