    I have been using the blazers but might try these Bi-Deltas. There is a thread about them in the AT manufacturers section

    Default Nap

    I use the NAP Quick Spin S/T. I found by conducting some research with various vanes 4",2.5",2" and 1.5" the best ones for a truely tight pattern are the NAP S/T's. Also if you fletch your own or have someone else fletch them for you, just make sure they do not go more then 2deg. Right. The NAP Spins are designed for between streight and up to 2 deg. RIGHT...NOT FOR MORE....

I have also shot broadheads with this combination and they fly great as well. I know they are lighter but I'm not looking for more speed but maybe just an "edge". I think alot of how you shoot depends on confidence and if you think using something will give you an edge you may even shoot better. Does that make sense?

    That's for sure. Being a trad archer, that's all I've ever used until I got my Ice. Now I keep tearing up plastic fletchings because I like to shoot groups.

    Going to go back to feathers and I have a ton of full length LW's. Need to see if I can burn them using a wrap. I have a feeling the wrap will melt if I get the burner even close. Need to do some experimenting. Maybe some sort of jig to hold the feather while I burn them.

    I'm cheap, I use mini's cause I can cut my wraps down and save money. Plus I've tried a bunch of setups and they fly as good as anything I've shot.
