    I think FOB stands for Flippin Ugly Bas turd or something like that. I have heard they work really well, but I will not put something that ugly on my arrow.

    I can get some to try out for free. My buddy bought some and cant stand them (although they are accurate). They screw with your anchoring, especially if you use a kisser from what I get from him. Bang, if you want to try them I know he'd give them up in a heartbeat.

    Side note: Has anyone heard of staggering blazers 1/2" lower per vane for shooting in nasty crosswinds? Like if you mount the first one normal, stagger the second in its normal place, .5" down and the third one also in its normal place, .5" down from the second one.

    The FOB video I watch talked about cross winds and why FOB are better than vanes in that respect. They show a slow mow of vanes and FOB flying. Not sure I can find the video now, I had run across it on another forum.
    I think I would like to try them if he doesn't mind. Thanks!
