I never thought I would shoot these colors
« on: September 05, 2009, 11:03:00 PM »
If Fred Eichler can do it ! So can I, at least shoot pink fletching anyway. I wanted something I could see this year. I don't think I'll have any problem with these.

They look great. I shot the same combo last year with a white wrap. They look pretty soaked in blood   :)

Yep, I've been doing it for years.
After the initial ribbing from the guys, they all agree that you sure can see them.

I like either white, or chartreuse.  Pink clashes with my loden green tights.

Those are lovely, my dear. I think it is wonderful that you have found another outlet for your artistic nature.   :D  

I used to say that nothing shone out in the woods like white, but then I discovered pink.

They really do stand-out. My mate Tony shoots some pretty gaudy arrows, and they are indeed easier to find!

Killdeer, those sure are nice!

I haven't gone pink just yet, flo yellow or flo orange with 4 fletch 4" shields that match.  Pretty easy to see either way.

Where can I buy RW pink fletches?  Have been using blue and chartreuse, and want something to
fire up my 2 brothers when they see pink.

If I had pink fletching, my daughter would start horking my arrows for herself.  Yellows, chartreuses and oranges for me for now.
