    Some of you may know I have switch to blazers this season to help with my older
    bow and the dropaway rest. I see that they are 2" at about .6 height on my 25 1/2" arrows. I see that their are mini blazers at 1.5" and height of .4 would I be
    ok using these mini's? Anyone shooting the mini's?
    Also what are you using to get the glue off of carbon's?
    Yes this ol boy decided to start doing his own work.

    Thanks much,
    T

    The mini's are not made for broadheads. In fact, on the package that is stated. The 2" blazers are what you'll want, the mini's are for target. That extra height is one of the reasons they work so well.

    I thought they would also be good with mechanicals and I will have to double check.

    Tony as mobow said the 2" are the size to use(Mechanical or Fixed).I tried the 1.5 on broadhead tipped arrows and the arrows would fish tail noticebly in flight.

    I just talked to easton regarding getting fletching off. they advised me to use either 91% isopropyl alcholol, or acetone. but to remove the nock before hand so they don't get ruined. They said that will take the glue off. I bought a tool for stripping the flething. works great, but you have to be carefull. the damn thins is so sharp it actually stripped a hair line of my arrow off with the fletching. there goes any easy $15.
