Blazers or 4" feathers?
 
WHich of these will be better for broadhead flight?

If i'm not mistaken, I think they weigh the same..

But will the Feathers have more drag, causing better flight? Or will the blazers do a better job?

ive noticed that feathers make more noise through the air then blazers and blazers help stablize the arrows the same

Mathewboy, I loved the blazer vanes when i shot field tips but then i put on 4 different broadheads and had 4 different impact spots. Then i put the broadheads back on my 4 inch vanes and wham back to hitting the same spot as my field tips. Walt

I've always shot feathers and have had great results withthem and their performance with broadheads have always been excellent. I've also never had a problem with noise coming from feather fletching but maybe my aging ears just can't hear that well anymore. :D As for the weight, a 4" feather weighs 2.6grs and a 2" blazer weighs 5grs.I've heard lots of positive feedback on the blazer vanes with the only exception being that some find them hard to get to stick on the shaft. I'm sure the blazersmust be good because a ton of people use them and several of my friends do and i haven't heard any complaints from them.In all honestyi think either will serve you well but my choice will always be feathers.

I have both on my arrows andI like both. Feathers really slow your arrow down after 40 yds and yes they are noisey. I don't feel that noise is an issue from them at a typical treestand shot of 10-15 yds though. Now for antelope, elk, and mule deer where a long shot may be typical, the blaser is the ticket. HCH
