    Yeah you wont be able to tell the difference they just make your easier to see and find. Plus you can get some pretty cool looking wraps.

    They are quite helpful for vane/feather adhesion though. But you will notice no flight differences, the weight just isn't enough to make any difference. WILL it change your FOC and total arrow weight? Yes. Technically. But you won't notice any difference at all. Wraps are a great way to personalize your arrows. www.onestringer.com

    what i did was just call there and tell them what arrows you shoot and they will tell ya how wide to get. The length is all in what you want. I would reccomend at least 6 inches long just because if you get any shorter they really aren't that noticable and it does depend on what size feathers or vanes you get too.

    Carbons are generally 1" wide.....And the length is up to you. Normal lengths are 4", typically used with Blazer vanes, and 7", typically used for everything else. Length is more about asthetics than anything.
