Default RE: what kind of vanes

I like useing Right wing 4inch Feathers out of my Buiscut Taped up with a Helical clamp and fairly big offset on them....i fletch my own so its fairly cheap....feathers have that classic look to them YOu can get them in solid and Barred colors...and if you want to get creative you can splice different colors together...here is an example on cedar shafts that some traditional archers like to use in a shield cut...notice the custom paint(cresting) on the shafts....nice[8D]i go to Eaglearchery.com for my arrow supplies


here be another pic

YOu can do the same thing with alums or carbon minus the Paint, or you can use arrow wraps.....Feathers work better than standard vanes out of a wisker biscut in my experience...i havent used blazers they probably work great but im stubborn and like the forgiveness that feathers offer incase of contact with a branch down range
