change em all, I went with white barred feathers and arrow wraps to ensure good visibility on my arrows. A cool looking arrow makes all the difference lol!

Change them....not for the expensive broadhead, but for the ability to see your arrow in flight.

If you think about it, how much do you spend on everything else a broadhead is kinda minor.

I just refletched all of my arrows to two inch.

I had a variety of 4 inch quick spins and others and wanted to equalize all arrows to the exact weight, color etc.

It gave me a Spring mission.

I used2 whites and 1 neon green.

I know you are talking vanes but I had bought some camo colored arrows and paid extra for them . Afterwards I thought how foolish that was and that I had paid extra for the camo . I put wraps and bright vanes on the arrows .

I have a hard time trying to choose!! I really do like the white/chartruese combo, but I bought three different colors of blazers last year and decided to look like a clown going in the woods!
They are all bright, and then I have the Tracer lighted nocks on them so I dont have NO PROBLEMS at all finding my arrow in the woods!!

......I would definantely go with a white wrap everytime for hunting!!

I liek to use any fletching that is going to stick out against any back ground. Chartruse is a good one as well as pink, white and blaze orange. I prefer 2 differnet colors, one being white. This way if im unsure of the shot when I recover the arrow the color of the blood will tell if I hit anything vital. The lighter colored blood pinkish is an idication of a lung. Darker usually means more muscle, such as heart or what not.
