What is your favorite color for the crown dip or wrap? If you have more than one, post it in a reply. Thanks
Blaze orange for me......nothing shows up better in flight.
Floresent Yellow with (3) 5" flo. yellow feathers.
Chartreuse with matching fletching. Shows up real good.
Autumn Orange shafts Yellow wrap's and Yellow nock's Orange feather's shine in my eye's. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I shoot only wood, and like a medium to dark stain on the front, and a light stain on the rear. I also really like a yellow or red stain that shows the grain.
Florescent green for me. I am blind in one eye. No joke. :saywhat:
Wish I could vote for more than one color. I prefer brighter colors like white, yellow, flo ogange......Helps my eyes see where my arrows go after the release.
I like white cap and white fletch. I can see it in flight in the dark woods and in targets or game. I gave up on the pretty arrow thing in favor of visibility. In fact I just unfletched my red natural turkey feathers and scraped off my ivory cap and painted them white and will do white fletch. Red barred did not show up in the woods at all.
Same here reddogge. Plain function. White cap, four white feathers on carbon. I can see it like it's in slow motion, especially at the point where it disappears, hopefully into the boiler room of a critter.
Red with red barred feathers.

Fluor. yellow cap or wrap, three 5" yellow feather, fluor. green nock. I can see the arrow under all lighting conditions, been shooting this set-up for over 40 years.
They are even brighter with a tint of red.
White for me, preferably with natural turkey feathers and a little cresting.
I voted orange, but I think pink is good also.
White for me.
I really like Bohning's birch bark pattern --- the old design _without_ their logo.
I'm just getting my feet wet but I think I'll keep this color combo.

Light gray almost as bright as white without spooking game and drawing attention.
I voted for yellow...but I like a FLO yellow.

Another vote for pink!
I used to be in the White wrap group but changed to Yellow a year or two ago. I just like the look of it better as hunting color. Dosesn't seem to stand out as much as the White did.
I have preferences based on usage.
Hunting -- white or yellow (not flo) good for flight visuals and long distance checking for color change. I really like the caps that change from white to red in mid flight. :p
Anything else -- Bright flo yellow or orange.
I like white, but it's hard to find the arrows with snow on the ground unless they've transformed to red. So I prefer yellow on my hunting arrows.

Blue for me. No other color stands out better against all those Fall colored leaves on the ground for me.
White cap dip, 5" yellow fletch and white nock. I do like yellow cap. I don't use colors not found in the terrain I am hunting.

I like these for visibility.
Gotta go with white. Easiest to see in low light when hunting. I prefer yellow during the day when practicing. These aren't the prettiest colors, but the deer don't know the difference.
I usually use yellow but also like a red/yellow combo. My eyes pick up both of these colors well.

I just started on a dozen POC with the med. stain in walnut and golden oak (yellowish) on the rear. Will put some yellow feathers on it and yellow knocks.
We have similar taste. I was just talking to my wife today about trying some cherry stained shafts.
