Cock Feather
 
What way do you place the cock feather on your arrow. I am shooting a Trophy ridge drop zone and i shoot with my feather up. Does anyone else do this or what ways do you put it?

Most drop aways recomend you put it up, that gives you the mose clearance for your rest. In some cases dependingon the bow you have to have it pointed left for clearance of the cables. I have mine pointed up, really helps with clearance on the drop away with a fast bow.

As long as you get total vane clearence it doesn't matter.

It doesn't really Matter with my Limb Driver, but I shoot cock up, since that's how I'm used to, from back in my WB days.

Always shoot mine up. If it is down then it will go thru the black bristles which are stronger than the brown ones.

I am thinking about going to Blazer vanes but I just purchased a black ice and keep hearing about clearance issues.

Exactly correct. The cock vane has to go up. This way the remaining two vanes will straddle the black (support) bristles.
