I just picked up another dozen Gold Tip XT Hunter 5575 arrows. They are identical to the ones I already have except the have 4 inch vanes instead of the 2 inch Blazers I've been shooting for the last 3 years. Will this make a difference in my arrow flight? I'm shooting a Whisker Biscuit if that means anything..... If I need to I can strip them and take them to the pro shop to get some Blazers put on. I had some gift cards to Bass Pro and needed some arrows so I figured why not
I'm sure it makes a slight difference, but most likely it will be negligible. I'd shoot a few groups and find out.
I agree with Fitz; however, the difference may be more pronounced when you go to broadheads. Shoot some groups!
Jim if you don't need them right away I'll fletch 'em for ya. We need to meet up anyways! I can do them next weekend while sitting around the lease.
I plan on shooting them with and without BH's before I try and kill anything with them. I appreciate the offer Greg, I don't have to have them until Feb 11th (thats when we leave for our annual javilina/hog hunt). I don't have any plans to be down around those parts anytime soon, but if I do I will give you a call. Thanks for the help guys
I had a huge difference in POI (4"@40yds.) between NAP 4" QuikTunes and the 2" Blazers. The only way to find out is to shoot them and see but I'd plan on making them the same.
Thanks for the heads up Rob I only have 4 arrows left with 2" Blazers, so I may just re-sight in for the 4" vanes
