Wow Timothy, I would but it's gonna take a while for my eyes to adjust so I can see to type after looking at all the bright colors on your arrows. What do you use for that red cap dip?

I can loose anything - we have tundra here in most places and permafrost - those arrows can go down 4 feet sometimes with a broadhead...less with a judo

Someone dubbed these my watermelon arrows!

LongbowGuy, I looked at them before they got pulled. Saw a bright flash, and then lost my sight for a few minutes. While they get resized, go get your sunglasses before you look at them!

Like that fletch color pattern Predator. I do believe watching them spin downrange would make me want a nice juicy melon all right. Good looking arrow.

How Well do the "Furry Tracers" REALLY Help with Arrow Visibility?? Never used them before, just asking before I try them.

I suppose I'd better play nice. Here is how I keep from losing them:

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/30coupe/Beman%20ICS%20Hunter/BemanICSBowhunter011.jpg)

I wrap them with reflective tape from Walmart - $1.49 for 30". Just wait until dark and hit them with a flashlight! They aren't nearly as pretty as the others posted, but they are sure hard to lose.

I've been there! My three little kids are all grown up and married now, but I have three little grandkids now. The nice part of that is I can send them home when they get on my nerves. Enjoy them while you can though. As the song says "Don't Blink."

It's all in fun! When my middle school students make that mistake, I ask them if they are Norwegian. Unfortunately, here in northern Iowa, most of them say, "Yah, why?" No offense to Norwegians intended, some of my ancestors hailed from Norway.

Shakes, I think they are supposed to puff up on impact. Ain't gonna help me none, nor them purty colored arrows. I could search for hours for an "errant" arrow just to have one of my kids show up and in a matter of seconds say ..Dad..it's right there!!

My arrows for squirrel hunting are completely blaze orange cedars with orange fletching.  I have NEVER lost one, even when shooting at squirrels in trees.  I have broken some though!

KISS but highly visible for me.  These are right out of my practice quiver.  the CXTH 4560s have 4" AMG LWs, the XX78 2213s 4" Killer Vanes fletched LH.  Needless to say, the wraps are by Onestringer...

The sad thing is I could hook a search light on the end of my arrows and still find a way to lose them!

5 inch, hi-viz white reflective tape used for wraps, white nocks, 3 white feathers and one flo yellow.  I carry a 200 lumens torch with me in the woods - they shine rather brightly when hit by the beam.
