Fletching colors

[TikkaT3-270Shortmag]

What color combos are you guys using? Any colors you think work better than others? Last yr I did 2 white and one pink.  Going to pick up some arrows tomorrow.  Never done a wrap kinda curious if they help much.

2 pinks and 1 white with a white wrap.  Not very good camo but you can really see the arrow fly and find it easily, too.  The bubbles in the blood on the wrap was really easy to see.

I change mine up depending on the batch of arrows so I can keep track of them sort of like a load for a weapon.  I usually use two darks and a white or bright color.

the set I shoot now is (2) white and (2) orange. Like Bone I tend to change them by the batch so I know how old my arrows are, but I almost always have (2) white fletchings and rotate the second color.

2 yellow 1 orange with camo orange wrap. I like orange. And camo. And wraps. Pink and white will never work. Throw them away!

Ok that brings up a good point. I still have 3 arrows from last year and wanted to refletch the same as my new arrows. Should I leave them how they are. Does it really matter what arrow is the oldest if it shoots good?

I like the blue nock bowman. Do you cover your fletchings  when hunting?

Those are cool looking, bowman.  FMJs too, it looks like.

Always like a wrap, one with white is best. My fave combo us white and Orange for most of my hunting arrows. I also like a bright yellow and use them a lot on mt trad bows.

I use the same tiger stripes as bowman but don't do the wraps (affects the FOC and effective spine).  I usually buy 2 colors (36 packs), typically yellow and orange.  Would fletch 2 of one color and 1 of the other (would choose the 2 fletchings for that batch of arrows based on which box had the most fletchings so I would end up using up both boxes at about the same time eventually).  So with one batch they would be two yellow and one orange and the next batch would be two orange and one yellow.  That would naturally change the color from season to season.  The yellow and orange are relatively easy to see when they get down range.  I have to admit that my bow shoots so fast, I hardly see the arrow flying except at long distances .

The orange and yellow do kill more deer, but not so good for elk.
