fletching colour

I have got to the point of making the big decision....

What colour fletchings to put on my new 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.

anything that is not grass and mud coloured and is bright, looks good, but is not too girlie.....that leaves purple! Perfect.

A lot of people choose black for some reason. Sure they match the shafts but they're not exactly easy to spot. Bright nocks always help.

Personally red and blue simply cos my cheap set had red and blue when I bought them (and that looked better than orange and pink), and it's easier to buy a lot of spares in just two colours.

Old Gold and Blue for my woodies - club colours

Green and White on the ACCs - mad - can't see them at distance very well.

All red. If they are all of the same colour and batch, they will all perform the same.

Red /Yellow and Orange --- dead easy to spot in the blue black or white - improvement in shooting may force re think - but they do look nice

purple and orange, with orange nocks. Makes it slightly easier to find the ones playing target avoidance!!
