Default 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.

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".
