BLAZER VANES

Just was wondering if anyone else on the forum uses blazer vanes.. I started shooting them with my new arrows and these things for their size are amazing I love em. broadhead flight is excellent.

    YUP, YUP! I use them for my whisker biscuit and love them. I also shoot Vortex mechanicles and they shoot just like my field points. They were recommended to me at an archery shop when I was asking about tearing so many vains with my WB. Hard to believe those little things work so well![;)]

ARROW'S ON A WELL TUNED BOW SHOOT JUST AS GOOD WITH VANES...[?] MY BROTHER WONT STOP USING FEATHERS EITHER HE SAID HE JUST LIKES THEM BETTER....IS THERE AREASON YOU PEFER FEATHERS.... OR ARE YOU LOOKING TO KNOW YOU RELEASED AN ARROW BECAUSE THE MATHEWS IS SO QUIET.[;)]

    Buckey,
    I shoot them because they tend to hold up a hell of a lot better than vanes especially with the groups I am shooting, if you ever get off the biscuit kick you may find you like them better as well. I do not notice any more noise out of my feathers than vanes. If you take proper precautions i.e. coat your feathers they won't get wet to begin with, I have hunted many days in the rain with them and they have performed well for me.

    Buckey,
    You didn't offend me, they are a lot more durable though. Thats cool that you still hate the block. Slash is still a blockhead in my mind [:D]

    I have shot them on and off for a year. I have not found anything better. I also have 3" Arizona vanes and 4" Duravanes. All work well.

    I don't because i need some 4" vanes for 3D. I use duravanes, they group ok, but they are not durable. I replace them all the time. Although they are cheap. For indoor shooting I use feathers.

    Come on Surekill, what you meant to say was "I'm with Gogo, Slas IS still a blockhead in my mind too!" RIGHT[?] That's okay, Gogo forgot to stop the Q-tip when he felt resistance in his ear one time and has never been the same. Funny thing was that it happened the day before he bought his first mathews![;)] Hmmmm, coincidence? i think not![:D][:o)]

    Slash you're right I did feel resistance thats why I did buy a Mathews, had I not felt any resistance I probably would have been like every other hoyt loving retard lacking gray matter. Try again?
