They help to see blood on them if they are white or a light color and they look awesome

I just got some, but haven't put them on anything yet. On one hand, they make the arrow easier to find. But they also add weight to the back of shaft - worst place you can put it. The ones I got are 7" long. I'm thinking of trimming them back to 5" so they will look "right" with the short 2" Blazers.

Cool looks and the ability to easily identify the type of blood after a hit are the only advantages I use wraps or dipped arrows for.

I use wraps on my hunting arrows only. Just for looks.
They are too much trouble for practicing. If you shoot one of the vanes off , you might as well cut the wrap off and start over. I use a dull razor blade to remove them. As much as I shoot and rip vanes off , I'd go broke rewraping arrows.

I agree, i got some white wraps, and 2orange veins with a white odd one looks sick!

What are wraps? never heard of them. I'm going to say no I don't use em, nor would I, my local shop guy I'm sure knows about them, and I would have heard about them if they were worth using.

they are the whitesheeting on these arrows, from the nock to up the arrow a little.It helps the veins stayed glued on better, and helps see blood alot better.
Its a bit more expensive, but i like them.

Wraps (I usally see them longer than this)


Dipped( helps to see blood, and looks cool)

No, I really never saw much use for them.

If I'm looking for my arrow it means it's probably all red anyway.
