Turkeygirl Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Andy got a qhisker bisquit for his bow this year...he likes it alot I guess and said something to me about fletching some arrows. Do arrows with blazers and wraps fly well through this type of rest? I wanted to check before I fletch some and then they didn't fly as well. Thanks;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted September 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Ok, cool. Should I do wraps or just put blazers on without wraps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidd Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 wraps and blazers would be my choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wisconsinboy Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 i have quickspins on my arrows with no wraps and they shoot fine out of my WB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rad_112176 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I shoot Blazers with wraps and they seem to shoot just fine. No Helical on them is what is best not to tear them after shooting through the WB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jlh42581 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I wouldnt think you would be getting any helical twist until that baby is way clear of the bow. Unless your saying the helical is problem with being offset. I shoot a right helical.. just went back to the WB from a trophy ridge drop zone and havent had a single problem.

Mach1 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 I've shoot wraps and Blazers with very little helical through a WB with zero issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flintlock1776 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 That was yesterday's technology and I loved it when I got it way back when. If WB gets wet/freezes it can be a pain. It will damage vanes over time. Check out any of the newer drop away rests. They hold the arrows well and don't have the vane freezing/damage issues WB does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 It may be yesterdays technology but it has alot of people who swear by it. When I had one(the first style of them) I found better performance by fletching bare shaft, with Feathers, 0-offset,and adding a drop of glue in the front of each to keep it from lifting them up.

JDAWG Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 I shoot Blazers with wraps and they seem to shoot just fine. No Helical on them is what is best not to tear them after shooting through the WB. I agree, no helical, just blazers with wraps will work fine ruth. The WB is pretty forgiving so it works with almost anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Blazers are the best vanes you could use with a WB Without a doubt! But I disagree with the others about the helicle. Not having a helicle is just tossing a knuckle ball. I put a right helicle on mine. That was yesterday's technology. It will damage vanes over time. I had this problem with damaged vanes at first. Then I switched to blazers and that problem went away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jlh42581 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Heres why i WENT BACK to a WB from a fall away... Bought the trophy ridge drop zone 3 years ago. Got my bow out to shoot before season about two weeks ago. Knocked an arrow... released...8" left! Look down, the arm is frozen in the up position. Cannot even force it back down. Eliminate ALL moving parts that you can on a hunting bow, just more stuff to go wrong. The only fall away truly worth the money in my opinion is the Muzzy Zero Effect.

rad_112176 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 But I disagree with the others about the helicle. Not having a helicle is just tossing a knuckle ball. I put a right helicle on mine. The problem with the helical is that it will wear on your blazers. You can get away with a 1 degree helical but i wouldn't go any more than that. I shoot on a regular basis during the season and use my hunting arrows to do my shooting so there is no question on how it will shoot. I can usually put arrows in a 3" circle at 40 yrds so the knuckle ball theory may be a little over the top. The glue at the tip of the blazer is definately a good tip also.

Turkeygirl Posted September 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 My blazers on my arrows that I fletched have a very slight helicle....very slight...about as much as I can get with the blazers still sitting flat on the arrow.

Guest BusterBoy Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Blazers are the best vanes you could use with a WB Thank you sir . My new bow came with a WB but I haven't set it up yet . Any tips on the correct adjustment ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LifeNRA Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Blazers are the best vanes you could use with a WB Ok, cool. Should I do wraps or just put blazers on without wraps? I use wraps and Blazers with my WB. Love it! Like mentioned above, Blazers work like a dream with a WB rest! This year I went with a right helical. Although, even last year the arrows flew great with a straight right offset about three degrees. Blazers are flying better this year with a right helical. Go here and see what the manufacture recommends. http://www.trophyridge.com/tips-tricks/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
