Does this arrow look stupid with this type of vane?
 
What do you guys think about this camo Axis arrow with the Blazer wrap and vane. This is only a practice arrow that was no good, just something to see if this looked ok..

I'm not sure what I think.

Actually dude, I think it looks pretty awesome!! White on camo works quite well.

The only issue I have seen so far is the fletching clearing the rest.. I have a QAD ultra rest and I think my odd fletching is touching the top bar on the rest. (I feel better with odd fletching up for some reason, habbit prob.)

Anyone have an issue with this?

The wrap and Blazers look great. I may go tiger next time after seeing yours.

I just put a quad on my bow and haven't checked to see if it's hitting the bar. I'm sure it may be but the arrows fly great even at 53 yds.

I always do cock vane up on all rests anymore unless another direction is called for. I would think that with that rest that's the only way to have minimal contact. If you rotate the arrow at all it will probably hit with 2 vanes.

lol, ya pretty mixed results...

I like the tiger stripes but think it would look better on black arrows, I think it looks ok on camo and I might do it but still not sure. I need to stick with the camo because I like the added weight of the camo arrow in the Axis.

I may have to remove the top bar on the QAD Ultra Rest though. Not sure if it's hitting or not but I'm telling you it's very very close.... Will have to shoot some first...

its very 80's hair band-like. reminds me of the pants those guys used to wear. i think it would look better w/ solid white vanes. that's just me though.

Looks good to me...

I've never been a big fan of the zebra stipe "Spirit of the Wild" look.
