Camo Arrows AND VANES!?
 
Yesterday at the archery shop I saw an individual purchase arrows that had camo print and then he had the shop fletch on camo vanes.

wha...wha...why? (scratching my head)

Some people just like camo, why else would they sell camo under wear. I personally don't use camo arrows on purpose. If that is what they have fletched up when I get arrows I will use them, but I am just as happy with regular old green, brown or black arrows (I shoot aluminums).

I am not knocking camo shafts...but vanes too? How do you find the arrow after the shot?

Maybe that person misses alot and their arrows end up in a tree. lol It would be easy to find then.

Personal preference. I always match my camo shafts with barred feathersthat match the camo pattern color wise, same with the nock(yes, I still shoot 4 inch feathers on my compounds, 5 inch on my recurves). In the past I used an all black setup when I shot black Goldtips, I put black feathers and nocks on the shafts. I never really have had a problem finding arrows after shots or seeing impact, I think bright colors just help a little more that is why most choose something bright whether it is the fletching or the nocks. I guess if I had experienced problems I might switch but until then I just camo everything out, I know it probably doesn't matter as far as the deer seeing anything, just personal preference. I liked using my all black setup in 3D shoots as well, to give people shootingafter meless to aim at.

I have a heck of a time finding black and white. They wouldn't be my first choice.

Love the look of camo.

That'd be my guess too, especially if the hunter wasn't planning on hunting out of a blind.

You ever shot a broadhead w/ out fletching??? That's why....:D:D;)

Another big reason for camo arrows is weight....Some folks like the added weight.
