Will it Work???
 
I want to put 2" blazer vaneson my arrows, but I talked to a buddy of mine and he recommended against it for shooting broadheads. I shoot 125 grain 3 blade Muzzy's, will these vanes be big enough to stabilize these broadheads and make them fly good?? Or should I stick with 4" vanes??

i personally would stick with the 4's for hunting but if you shoot comp go to the 2's.I wouldnt think it would mess with it much or if any,but if it was me id stay with the 4's

Cougars09 doesn't understand the concept behind the Blazers. They are not your ordinary 2" vanes for 3D. Go ahead and give them a try. I haven't shot them with fixed blades as of yet, but everything I understand about them here and in the Tech forum, they are every bit as good as their longer counter parts.

Give them a try and let us know how you do.

Don't hesitate to give them a try. They perform every bit as well as a 4 inch vane shooting NAp nitrons out of my bow.

I would bet you 2 doughnuts it works just fine.......provided that your bow is tuned properly, as it should be anyway. Don't be afraid of the Blazers.....don't be afraid. ;)

I shoot Blazers with 100gr 3 blade Muzzy's and I'm very happy with how they fly.

This is great to know. I shoot a diamond victory as well, but I have a 28" draw and it's set at 70lbs. Thanks guys, I think I'll give them a try.

Do the blazers only come in 2" and four colors?

they come in a whole bunch of colors, and now i believe they have an even shorter vane for mechanicals.

Rick, as far as I know, I've only seen 5 colors, Neon yellow, orange and green plus white and black.

They come in 2 sizes, 2" and 1.5".

Just mentioned this in another thread but my experience with them in a cross wind with 100 thunderheads was not good. The 4" vanes I shot them with was better. I didn't spend a great deal of time on it though but did do it with the wind going in different directions on 2 occasions and the results were the same @ a distance of between 35-40 yrds. I do plan on trying the test again with some other vanes as well. Bought 30, 100 thunderheads last year for 50 bucks so those aren't going anywhere.:DOther heads may give better results.

The shorter blazers are for target shooting. Don't use them w/ broadheads!!

They come in blue, pink, white, black, orange, yellow, neon yellow, green, and I am pretty sure I'm missing one or two. Purple is another I believe.

Thanks for the info, the shop here in Del only had four colors and he didn't know if there were more or not:eek:.

Hey MOBO, when you say the shorter ones are for field points, do you mean the 2" ones or the 1 1/2" vanes. Will the 2" vanes work for 125gr 3 blade muzzys??
