Cresting Arrows
I was just wonderng if anyone could help me on cresting arrows. I would like the arrow to be more visible in flight. I know about EZE crest but are there any alternatives? If anyone could help me out on this one that would be great.

Spray paint, $0.99 at wally world. I used flat white with a clearcoat over it to decrease the amount that rubbed off when shooting.

A friend of mine used spray paint meant for appliances. It's thick and finishes out real smooth and even. He taped his flights off first and then sprayed. Looks real good and didn't affect arrow flight.

RE: Cresting Arrows
You can buy the kit from Bohning.It comes with everything you need to crest your arrows including a video tape that takes you step-by-step through the whole process.I don't recall how expensive it was when we got ours,but it is the best way to do a good job on you arrows in my opinion.Just thought I would add,you will need a very well ventlated area when using the paint that comes with the kit,but is very durable and stays on the shaft for a long time.
