Hi All,
Per the 'tinkering' thread, I'm playing with vanes a bit. I shot AAE Plastifletch 2.75" vanes the past two years as that's what the shop tuned my bow with. They have been good and I shoot them well. If I end up sticking with them I won't be put out. But I like to tinker and play and this is something easy enough to play with. I shot blazers in the past but I don't like them. That profile of vane isn't for me. I picked up some Tac drivers (2.7" I think) and I love the profile. The stiffness in up there. They seem to guide the arrow well (I still need to shoot them at distance) but they don't stick well enough (and its random when ones will stick and ones won't). I put them on TAC wraps but didn't use the primer on them. Unless I'm sold that a particular vane is the best thing since sliced bread, I'm not doing primer steps also. I've considered the AAE Max stealth, but they need a primer also.
What other 2.5-3.5" vanes are you using and like?
Thanks
Rick
