    I know there are hundreds of combinations of wraps and vanes, but I would like to see from you guys what your favorite combinations/designs look like on your hunting arrows. I have never wrapped my arrows but I am looking at doing something before the season starts. So, Show off those arrows!

    I always go solid white wrap
    Then my fletching colors are always 2 white and 1 that matches color of the arrow

    I generally keep it simple go with a white wrap with minimal cresting and fluorescent color vanes.

    I put some on arrows that had vanes cut off from target practice or that got damaged for one reason or another. They look great, go on in just a few seconds, and fly good. They are a bit pricey though.

    These are my new favorites. Got them from a AT member. They are holding up wonderfully! Shot one through a bear last week. Washed it and it looks brand new.

    I change mine every year, sometimes more often than that. I love building arrows lol. I always use Onestringer Wraps but mix it up with the vanes I use. Here are some from over the years. None of these are the ones I made in my trad days. I lost the HD years ago that had all those pics on them.

    How hard is it to use the quickfletch with arrows that have/had glued on fletchings? I bought a pack of quickfletch at one of the Gander Mountain stores that was a few days from closing and have thought of trying them but don't really want to buy new arrows just to try these.

    It was really easy. Spend a bit of time and get as much of the old fletching glue off and it should be just fine.

    How hard is it to put a wrap on straight? I'm TERRIBLE with stickers and, DON'T LAUGH, but I have a sticker phobia. Don't know why but somehow it passed to my son as well. Can't stand to be around a sticker. When I have to go to a CPE education deal I will not wear a "Hi My Name is..." sticker. I paid for the seminar you don't need to know my name.

    With all that said I'd like to have a neat wrap but afraid it'll look like a pre-schooler put it on with my sticker skills. LOL!

    SharpeyeSam - your wraps are cool as all get out!
