This is easily fixed with a little warm water and some drying,the shaved part is permanet but they still fly fine afterwards.


only deer i shot was with blazers....arrow blew threw into the glacial till type soil of the north woods...though ive seen it on shows as well where a shaft stops at the fletchings...always vanes...

hmmmm guess thats potentially one more item to add to the list of things that contribute to a pass through...

"but if you line your blazers up with your broadhead blades they will pass right through the slices of the blads..." im going to beat someone to it.......lol

not exactly

I am not starting this as an argument for feathers over vanes.I was curious about how many actually give it thought.AND to maybe get a few to think about it if you are in the same boat as I.
