Feathers, because I shoot off the shelf on most of my bows.

Blazers. Very durable and stabilizes the arrow quickly.

For deer hunting I use feathers. For everything else I use anything, blazers, mini-blazers, quikspins, 4" vanes, feathers.

Feathers!! They are Lighter, give better control, more forgiving, and help give you a higher FOC;)

I changed from Quickspins to Blazers because the QS's were just too damn expensive and not at all durable. Feather's won't work up here because of the constant soaking and beating in the brush that they'd take.

I have always used a RH clamp with RW feathers. Size depends on a lot of things. I use Razr feathers, 3" feathers, and occasionally 4" feathers. I rarely use over 3" myself anymore. Using bigger feathers will control the arrow more/faster.
