I'm sure that you could use the WB but I'm not going to say yes or no. I would guess that Blazers perform better than longer vanes or feathers through it since they have less area to contact the bristles in the biscuit. I believe 5shot has done some tests with the Blazers and the WB. Send him a PM.

I recently flecthed 3 arrows with blazers, and arrow wraps, and I shoot with the TR drop away. I quickly noticed that if I had a vane straight down, I had contact at the riser/rest. SO, looks like I will need to fletch with a cock vane and have it straight up to prevent any contact. Other than that, they seem to stabilize my arrows quite well with field points and also with the my 3 blade innerlocs!

Howler,
I use the Trophy Taker fall away rest and I too get a little fletch contact if the cock vane is down, but with it up, I get amazing accuracy even with my broadheads.

Yip, I have now added a cock, off color, vane to my set-up. I was using all one color before, but the blazers are just too tall, and do indeed have contact, with a vane straight down. And I also am very pleased with accuracy with them, even with my fixed heads.
