Pink fletch

[RedShaft]

I have been considering getting some fletchings in pink/bubble gum color. I’m making up a new batch of arrows soon.
I have always used flo orange, yellow or green. But In early season they can hide in leaves n be tough to see.
Was considering 2 pink and a black or chartreuse or just all pink.
Those of you who have gone to pink have you had good luck with seeing low light arrow flight/ hits and finding arrows in the woods?
These will be for hunting and 3-d. Thanks!

I use pink quite often for the exact reason of showing up in foliage. There is nothing else in the field that is bright pink, so it shows up really well. Unless of course you miss into a giant Crape Myrtle  ! I've done it... I too can see pink in flight better than any other color.

Here is a picture of some FMJ's I made up with two pink barred / one solid pink with one stringer black and pink wraps years back. They are pretty warn out and the wraps are really faded but you get the idea!

Love the pink! Easy for me to spot hunting, stumping or 3D shooting especially when I miss!

Pink and chartreuse barred.

I started with pink to honor my wife and all the other ladies that have experienced one of the “lady” cancers. All is well in our house now but when I’m freezing my tail off late season. One look at the pink reminds me I’m a lucky man. I see them good in the leaves and especially the snow.

I’m no pink guy and use lots of chartreuse. I mix blue w em and I have no trouble finding arrows. Def nothing is blue so perhaps mix that w pink as an option as well

Hopefully this posts okay but here are the 2016 Easton Gamegetters my dad had made for me in 1982. Two orange hen feathers and a fuchsia or fluorescent pink cock feather. These things are 37 years old and still as bright as can be. If I'm using "pink" then I'm going with something that's "burn my eyes" pink...something I can see laying in red, orange, yellow or brown Fall leaves. Sorry the pic is a little blurry...

Have often used pink w/pink barred or w/traditional white barred.

My favorite setup.

Do it and you will never go back. Pink is KING for visibility and ideal for everything except hunting turkeys.

I agree pink is the easiest to find.

All pink all the time. Only colour I can see at any distance.

I have lost more pink arrows than any other color. That said, I'm getting some hot pink Trad Vanes today, to test out.

Thanks guys.
I used to hunt turkeys with the bow every spring. Then I had some bad luck and have not gotten back to the bow for them. I need to do that. Your right I would probably need to be careful with the turkey and pink. Speaking of that I need a new blind too.
Thank for sharing the pics. Orange was always my favorite color setup. Funny different times they can either be easy to see or hard.
Last night I was shooting 2 orange and a chartreuse. And right before I couldn’t see anymore to really shoot the orange was not very visible but the green chartreuse was very visible compared to the orange. The orange kinda of dulled and that chartreuse almost seemed to glow!

Pink is very easy to see. I'm secure in my manhood and use pink feathers and vanes

I  started using the pink about thirty years ago.  Three fletch with a white or black cock feather.  But now I'm doing four fletch all pink. Last year I nearly cracked and did a yellow fletch. Even did the yellow crown but at the last minute it went pink.

Started using pink last year.  I can see them.  I'll likely use some amount of pink from here on out.

Hard to beat hot pink. I’ve heard a good many favor Chartreuse for low light and it sounds reasonable enough I just haven’t taken the time to do an evening side by side test like I need to
