fletching colors
What color fletching shows blood the best. I shot a doe last year and had a hard time finding my arrow. I have been using 2 blue 1 yellow is there any colors that would show up better?

RE: fletching colors
I use 2 white and 1 red. The white shows blood well and the red makes the arrow a bit easier to find.
But the bummer is that the colours of my fletchers stick out like a sore toe when I' m hunting. To fix this I made a pouch to cover the fletchers on my arrows, but it now acts like a sail and catches the wind like a champion, which makes it kinda hard when shooting in windy conditions [:' (][:@].

RE: fletching colors
I use 2 whites with a fluorescent orange cock feather
I also have a Sims fletching cover that goes over your arrows to hide the fletching (Ted Nugent uses one all the time on his show). After trying it though, it deforms the vanes. It may ot be so bad on feathers, but the vanes tend to stay that way and will not striaghten out
