Duravanes blazers
2.3" 2"
.4high .55 high
3.6 grai 5 grain

I dont know the thickness but the blazers are the toughest vanes I have tested. They also claim to be designed to steer broadheads better. I dont know why.

Do yourself a favor and try the Blazers. They are very durable and fly my arrows extremely accurate.

I actually went through my archery tackle box over the weekend trying all sorts of old broadheads with the Blazer vanes. I honestly didn't have a broadhead that wouldn't group with my fieldpoints.

I even tried one of those old Bear Razorheads. I've had that broadhead since I was 17 years old (for 22 years!) Even that razorhead grouped with the fieldpoints! I was stunned!

well since this is such a big topic all over this forum it kinda seems vanes are winning the battle and that surprises me. I think I am going to have to give the blazers a try. Do you guys get them on a right helical?

I fletch all of my blazers with a right helical.

Granted you don't get much helical on a 2" vane, but it is there none the less. They seem to work better with helical than with offset.
