Most of the year I use a red cap dip with 4-4" chartreuse feathers.  I can see them real well.  Yup, in early fall in a few areas, they are less than perfect, but I can sure see where I hit a deer or a bear.

Depends on which bow I am shooting. I am in the process of standardizing the fletching colors for the various spine weights of various sets of arrows I have. This makes it easier to make sure I grab the appropriate quiver when heading out to shoot. Yellow hens with a natural barred cock feather is my choice for my favorite hunting bow.

A off color than normal is your best choice. I use wild turkey feathers of my own finishing. So I use died yellow and natural. For the life of me I can't imagine why anyone would use RED any where on a hunting arrow. If I see red on a animal I've shot after the shot I don't want to confuse blood loss with my arrow.
Most people get rich by making more money than they have needs, me, I just reduced my needs!

I usually use real natural barred turkey feathers, sacrificing a little visibility for durability.  I think the natural feathers look the nicest too.  I do use a white nock.

For pure all around visibility though I would choose white feathers with a white nock.  For me it's the best color for seeing the arrow in flight.

I use either all orange or white and orange.  Not much else on the ground that is orange.

4 4" feathers on yellow paint.... easy for me to see.... except becomes a challenge with the fall aspens and also in fields of Dandelions...

I am thinking that two pink and one blue might be what I will try .

Chartreuse fletch and nock on a white crown work best for me.  There are some yellow leaves in the early season, but that really doesn't last long.  Chart and white are the only ones that hold their bright in early morn and when the evening light fades.  Everything else, incl pink, blue, orange and yellow go dark to me.  Chart and orange 4 fletch makes an easy to find 3-D arrow, esp on a white crown.

Two whites and one fluorescent yellow for me. All my arrows get fletched that way; been that way for a LOOOOONG time now.
