The only vane that I have used that works at controlling an arrow as well as a real feather does are the NAP quick spins. If I'm gonna use a vane then it's gonna be the Quick Spin speed hunters.
Gonna shot a buck on Halloween with one of these.

Blazers are getting some good reviews from some guys, but man those Flex Fletch are TOUGH. Check out the attached pic.
That white square is from a plastic milk jug. The arrow was tipped with a field point. Those 3 cuts were made by Flex Fletch vanes!
Did the same thing in and out. AND the fletch was still glued to the arrow and not deformed.

From a dealers point of view, tried a lot of different ones. I get samples all year long from different companies. Most I have tried, some I wondered "what was going thru their mind when they made these"! Most are good but the worst and also has both bad rap and some say good is the blazers. A lot of people, including myself, had the blazers come off the shaft. I spoke with bohning about it, and was told that I don't know what I am doing! First they told me it was the glue used, I told them it was theirs, oops. Well use the better glue, I did, same results. I was then told "I" was doing something wrong!! I have switched to NAP speedhunter, Fusion, and Vane Tec. I have used many types of glues on these and have not had one problem. BTW one other store still uses them in the area, and I just got one of their customers that had them come off. I glued on the Vane Tec that are exact carbon copy of them and wa-la they stick.
