in your opinion, what is the best color that stands out the most? whether its low light, or high noon etc. to me, its either pink or yellow. but to me, in low light, pink almost seems to vanish. what do you think?

Chartreuse/flo. yellow/flo. lime, whatever ever you want to use.  That type stands out pretty good for me in low light.

I love pink, but at last light nothing stands out better than white

Pink or red for me...

But blue will guarantee me not losing an arrow in the woods.

White with florescent Yellow bars. I also use a white cap and florescent Yellow or green nocks.

I sent a 2 red 1 black combo tapered cedar shaft into the pre-sunset brush this evening. It's still out there...    :mad:  
Now, the post sunset missed shots into the pasture with the  3 fletched chartruse feathered arrows were all found.
You do the math...   ;)

White cap dip, chartruese feathers (lime green), and a white nock.  They glow!

Chartreuse/Flo yellow with a white crown and clear flo yellow nock is the most visible for me.  Lots of colors show up well during good light, but the chart really shows its colors in low light.  All white is probably a close second for me.

Chartruese four fletch with chartruese cap wraps, (check the pick of my avatar), had a guy shooting 3d with me at dusk said my arrows looked like tracers.

I use red and yellow feathers. I can see them spinning when I shoot.

Fl orange shafts and fl yellow fletching. Tried blue but they get lost in the shadows in the orchards I hunt in.

I've been using 3 pink feathers with a white wrap and flo green nock. Works great for 3d haven't lost an arrow yet and I miss a lot! I also like 3 charturuese with white wrap and flo orange nock. Different feather manufacturers have different ideas for charturese. I like Gateway Charturese and AMG Pink. Both really bright.

For me....Flo. Lime/chartreuse for low light conditions, and flo. orange for daytime/3D shoots.
