Whats everyones choice of vanes and why? Blazers, 4", quickspins, wraps, applied straight, offset, or helical. also, what arrows you have those on.

Me, I have Beman Team realtree MFX w/ straight blazers. I hate um. no spin what so ever so that dont fly like I want them, I shot one with an off set 1 deg. and it made a world of difference. way better group and fly more accurately w/ montecs. what do ya'll think.

I saw where the majority of people that responded on the “What Vanes do you Use?” thread had picked 2” blazers. I have always shot your basic 4” Dura-vanes and have no complaints but since I had several arrows that needed to be re-fletched I bought some of the Extreme fletch 2” blazer vanes and went one step further and got the Quick Spin variety and put them on the Bemon Max-4 arrows I’m shooting. Holy Arrow Splitting Groups Batman!! I’m a pretty decent shot but since I put those baby’s on I’m having to really move my aiming spot around to keep from ripping up all my arrows. Suddenly, I’m one with the arrow like I’ve never been before and it has to be this Blazer/Quick Spin combo. Has anyone else ever had this happen?

I shoot hand split, hand cut feathers from Turkeys I've killed. Lightly spray the feathers with pesticide and store in the freezer. The factory feathers are on my practice arrow.
