RE: Vanes or Blazers?
I have shot pretty much everything except the quick spins. I have some arrows fletched up with blazers right now. They work really well but I will be going back to feathers. They are just more forgiving in my opinion. I do feel as far as vanes go blazers are the better product at the moment.
I still shoot aluminum arrows as well, so maybe my opinion doesn't mean much. Not that I haven't tried carbons, I have shot several, but just think for the money aluminums are better. I feel the same about feathers I guess.

I shot the blazer 2inch speed hunters last year, I switched to blazers this year and seem to do just as well. They reduce arrow weight at the rear helping FOC so why not shoot them.

RE: Vanes or Blazers?
If you shoot a whisker buiscuit or if you hunt with a fixed blade broadhead, then Blazers are a no brainer.
If you shoot 3D, you need 4" to stay in hunter class, if you want to shoot open (IBO of course) then it doesn't matter.
Feathers are great as well, but if they get wet, you are sunk.
I shoot blazers for hunting for the following reasons:
1) They are tough
2) They steer broadheads well
3) They shoot well off my bow
4) It reduces weight at the back of my arrow (always good)
5) They are simple to fletch
