Back in the late 70's I shot aluminum arrows with vanes off a Flipper rest and Berger button.
Worked great, especially in rainy weather. When I went back to Cedar, I used feathers. Vanes were also quieter in a backquiver that doesn't totall collapse on your back.

I had a mishmash of arrows stump shooting today...I am always impressed how deadly silent the vanes are.  Like Sergio said, that little 1/4" rest makes a world of difference.
