I like Green and Black. They are harder to find so I try not to miss as much.  ;)  I started splicing in a red stripe trying to make them easier to find.

I think I might need brighter colors..... maybe green and yellow.

White and baby blue. Blue is easy to find on the ground, and easy to see in flight. Plus, lots of blue jays where I hunt so I figure it won't spook the deer?

3 white for my field points. 3 red for my broadheads. 3 yellow every once in a while. Always use white index nocks. I like to see the nock headed toward the target when they fly, but I guess a lot of us do.

Some barred

 white and red with a ruby nock

                      or

white and bright yellow with a fluorescent green nock

It depends what bow and arrow combination that I'm using. Different spines are fletched different colors.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

I shot all red this year (4" four fletch), with a red nock. Im switching to something lighter by next season though...had a problem tracking the arrow in low light situations.

It all depends on the shaft that it has to be put on.I know that a very few people make all their arrows the same. If you do that then your options are very limited. I try not to make all of them the same. None the less I always get my arrows back!!!!!!!!

I like the real deal...of course white crown and nocks help see them in flight....natural camo works!

Yellow feathers, yellow nock and yellow cap dip. Bright as I can get them. Oh and black cresting kind of a bumble bee look.

All 3 barred natural. Shooting from the ground, the deer never saw it coming.

Red and black with some trad barred with white or pink fur tracers.
Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.
