I just picked up my new Gold Tips and had blazer vanes put on. I shot and paper tuned and am now shooting bullet holes. My concern is when I got home from the archery shop is when I draw back and release the one vane on the cable side (right handed = right side) just barely grazes the cable, should I be concerned?

I would say ...Yes, anytime you have fletchings touching it would be a concern for me. I bought some new ones last year (GT's)and they didn't have any shafts that weren't fletched, so I wound up with them too. I was having issues with the clearance....They stick out farther from the shaft than a normal vane or feather,I didn't sweat it long and went back to feathers...

Try an after market cable slide. I think some of them keep the cable a little tighter to the cable guard. This might provide enough extra clearence to solve your problem. Good luck.

I had to do that, it worked good.

I had clearence trouble with Blazers on my X Force, but I was able to turn the cable rod a little (which moved the cable further away) and solve the problem. Can you move / adjust the cable rod?

I had issues when I put blazers on my GT ultra 22 series. I just had to twist the nock a bit....with a drop away rest it was no big deal.

yeh I was gonna say...just turn the nock a little if you are shooting a drop away.

i'm shooting a prong style rest...i'm going to go the archery shop tonight and have them look at it

Have them fix the problem, there is no reason you should have any clearance problems with standard vanes on your arrows!

I thought it was proven that blazers had the same height as normal vanes!?!
