Jeramie Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Im in the process of ordering 300 vanes in various colors. The guy (bullseye feathers on ebay) told me to order the Vanetec. He said they are tougher than Bohning Killers and are roughly as Cheap as Dura Vanes. Anyone use them and what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? They were one fo the vanes I looked at when I was thinking of changing to a heavier fletch. From what I remeber, they were tougher, but can't remeber the pricing. I do beleive they are a touch heavier than Bohning, but not real sure on that.

Jeramie Posted September 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? They are the same price as duravanes.... FYI. Im not sure I like the heavier all so much. I think my Jig does better with the lighter fletching such as Duravanes. (arizona ez fletch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? I just did some killer vanes for my cousin, and they seemed to not "fit" into my Arizona tight, they would move around when putting the glue on......... I'm not real wild about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted September 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? Actually mine were exactly that opposite. They fight really tight in the cawk vane. I had to let the glue completely dry before trying to remove the jig. Otherwise it peeled it off completley. If I let it sit for 20-minutes it came off ok. I actually shaved it down a little so it would let loose of the vane. I will not take thicker vanes but still doesnt seem to do as well as the Duravanes...

CDubWSR Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? I am shooting 3 inch vanetech's this year and i like them alot. They are only a minor amount heavier than the blazers i was shooting. These vanes are super stiff and durrable. I really like them alot and my arrows are flying good. My roommate and his dad both shoot them on their finger bows with helical to great success, and my boss shoots them out of his bow too. I dont think you would be dissappointed, but they deff seem to be a little bit thicker so you may have a problem with your jig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Re: Vanetec vanes? Jeramie, i shot vantetecs all through 3d season and they were good for me. but i dont like to get locked into 1 type of vane. each year for all my setups i determine what arrow i want to shoot. then based on what i want that arrow to weigh and how the FOC is, determines on what fletch i shoot. i think you will like the Vanetecs a lot, they will make good vanes for hunting arrows. 3 inchers are what were on my 3d arrows. Shoot Strong Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
