Two white with one purple on one set. Two yellow with one purple on the other. Red nocks on one set and green on the other.

White and yellow because they are easy to see. Purple because....well, because it's purple!

I'm one of those weirdos thats opted for all black....

3 black shield max fletches, with my new saltire flame wraps (black with some blue/white).

Currently using black MAC pin nocks, but will probably change these to yellow Carbon impact.

I like to think of them as stealth arrows!!!!

How do you guys decide which combination to pick?

Is it random chance or do you go for maximum visability?

Which combinations do you find work best?

P.A.
Use what you like.

If arrows are in the grass they all hard to find

If arrows on target use bright colour nocks that no one else uses cos most fletches hard to see at 90M even with a scope

Two Black, one white quikspins and white nocks on my ACE's. Basically New Zealand colours. Impossible to see in poor light.

Two blue, one orange with orange nocks on my ACC's. Too many orange nocks in the targets at my old club, hence the colour change.

Had a set with fluo pink nocks once (two black feathers, one pink), could always tell they were mine as few gent longbowers seem to like that colour!

I have as awful as I can find in combination.
Why? Because its funnier and people knows it's your arrows.
On my indoors I have turkey feathers that are Yellow, Pink and Orange, and its really bright colours, not plain!
And on my outdoors I have torqouse with a sligtly bit more of dark blu and white. (It was an emergencyfletching before a competition)
