Default Need your opinions on fletchings

I was talking with my friend today and was telling him I need to re fletch my arrows. I told him I was going to use orange and white blazers and he made the valid point that in the fall if I miss a deer or whatever it will be really hard to find my arrow which I never thought of. What do you all think? If this is true what colors should I use for my blazers then?

I found it the easiest to find arrows when using a white wrap, and white blazers. Sometimes people use pink or purple fletch to help find arrows since pink or purple is a color you never see in fall like yellow, red, or orange.

I would go with all white or 2 whites and 1 lime green. And I agree with the wrap in all white. There is also a wrap now thats all white during the day but glows in the dark for those last minute shots. Plus wraps add that nice accent to your arrows.

2 neon pink with 1 neon blue, that's how I do it. Doesn't look like the most manly arrow out there but they're very easy to follow. IDK why but I can't follow white too well (maybe that's why I sucked at baseball).

I probably could have picked more noticeable colors but they are flourescent. I just grew up hunting in New Jersey where hunting pressure is high and they love to put on deer drives, I still have a hard time going into the woods with anything that is white.

Shoot any color fletching you want and add tracer nocks, easy to find and doesn't glow or shine till it's too late for the quarry.
