I remove it mainly because I shoot all season without it. Also I always feel like all those bright fletchings moving around when your getting your bow up is a big flag waving. I remember seeing a guy on a hunting show with a 6 arrow quiver full of arrows, white wraps and white fletchings, and regardless of all the camo he had on, that mass of white stood out like a turd in a punch bowl. The huge buck that came incaught him moving when he was getting his bow up. Maybe it wasnt the arrows, but ever since then Ive been paranoid about it.
