During overcast sky's and with light nearing sunset
you can see them really good as they miss the target(oop's) [8D]

Actually, they rescinded that bit of etiquette law a few years ago. It is now fashionably accpetable....

How about all black with black nocks? Now there is a nice combination.

These could be used after Labor Day, due to the fact that they are not all white.

Forget green and orange, I use 3 white vanes.

P.S. All black works nice for 3D shoots. That way I can not see where I missed, but better yet it makes it hard for others aim at if it was a good shot.

It's unfortunate, but I think most are missing the target here. Visibility / Being able to find your arrow after the shot, should NOT be the determining factors when deciding on fletching/nock color. SHAFT COLOR should determine what color vanes/nocks you use. Let's take hot pink for example. One could put two hot pink and one white on a black carbon shaft and look quite stylish. Put that same combo on a MOBU or Adv Timber shaft and you'll be on Mr. Blackwell's list before you know it. It's the accesories that matter gentlemen, rember that.

6 Fan, You make a very good point. I never lookad at it that way. From now on I will take that into consideration as well as the camo pattern on my bow. They will be in the quiver, and I couldn't possibly wan't to clash while I'm in the stand. I'll have every deer in the woods laughing at me.

I use two neon green and one white vanes, and then crest the arrow with reflective blaze orange.
