What is your color choice for fletching ?

[LB243]

I use 2 flo orange and 1 white feather over a flo orange wrap.

3-4" pink with a flo pink wrap. Have not lost an arrow in practice or 3d with this combo. And I miss a lot!

[SEMO_HUNTER]

All natural black/white barred real turkey feathers for me. I fletched with chartreuse one year and to my amazement turkey can see that! Had turkey bust me several times while drawing with the chartreuse commercial feathers, went to all natural and never had a single bird bust me. Natural colors are best if your after birds, deer don't care so much. In my neck of the woods I'm just as apt to encounter turkey as well as deer, coyote, bobcat, ect. so I stick with all natural turkey feathers that I process myself, and as an added bonus they are naturally water proof.

I also only use brought colors.. white, chartreuse, orange, etc.
I want to see the arrow in low light.

This one is easy:

I have gone brouhaha this myself. For best to see in woods it's its best, pink, white(except snow), blue. But you have to be careful wih blue and turkey.

In the colors around here, orange, yellow, red, chartreuse, are no good in fall leaves here.

Cant miss these:

Pink.  Mammals can't see red pigments (why red/black plaid covers so well and orange vests look like yellow to game animals).  As a result, pink feathers turn grey to their eyes.  But, to our eyes, they stand out in almost all environments year round excluding a field of pink wildflowers.

White is fantastic until covered in blood in autumn or if there is snow on the ground.

Flourescent yellow and orange are nice, unless it's fall and there are yellow and orange leaves everywhere or in early spring if there is a lot of yellow-green grass or something then the yellow is hard to see.

Blue shows up really well almost year round, but in shadows at night it isn't as bright as pink so pink gives a nudge there.

I usually use whatever I have around.  Every set of arrows is different.

I find no matter what, you will find certain times of year in certain areas, your arrows will be more subjective to blend in.

I was told, "If you are not breaking and losing arrows, you are not shooting enough."

[Red Beastmaster]

Shooting instinctively requires being able to see the arrow in flight. Repetive shooting soon gives the mind a visual pre-flight path during the "aiming" process.

In my case, using easily visible fletching is essential to consistant instinctive shooting. I have to use brightly colored feathers or I don't shoot well. My personal preference is chartruese and orange with a flo orange or flo yellow nock.

I fletch for accurate flight, not for finding errant arrows in the woods duff. If I'm shooting well I don't have to look for arrows anyway.

I remember 20 years ago I made up a batch of arrows with real barred turkey feathers. Man, did they look cool! I shot those arrows so poorly I was glad when I finally lost the last one! I've never used a dark feather since then.

Just one note on spotting lost arrows........my Easton Blues really jump out at you when they end up in weeds or under leaves. I use them for hunting groundhogs and general roving.

[rick7]

yellow and orange works best for me

[b.glass]

I've been stuck on orange lately. Fl. orange nocks, orange tail splice on autumn brown/barred with an orange tracer. I'm working on a batch and will put them on the "Woody Love" thread.

[D. Key]

Pink for me also with an occasional yellow.

[TroutGuide]

Orange and yellow. Barred with a sharpie. Orange  or white nock.

[Zradix]

Yeah, I'done the chartuese too....not great for helping you find an arrow in MI in the early season.

Tried pink and I think it's the easiest to see.
Blue stands out well too..not as bright as pink though.
I'VE READ SOMEWHERE THAT DEER CAN SEE BLUE REALLY WELL..SO I STAY AWAY FROM THAT COLOR.

White is bright of course..but knowing deer use that color as an alert keeps me from hunting with it.

I've done red, green, yellow,orange, natural.

I'd say yellow is second to pink.

anymore, I just use whatever color looks good with the bow..I know..very vain..lol

Right now I'm shooting an osage bow with dark ebony riser...using dark brown and yellow feathers.

Next I plan to make a camo bow....green and brown feathers...lol

[BassBow]

Red!

[Phillip Fields]

5" shield cut, 2 white and 1 natural barred on a white reflective wrap, with a white nock.

[abbatoys]

Always liked some yellow in my dip or feathers, but sure think I will try some pink now...

[Mint]

Two chartreuse yellow with a blue cock feather over a white crown with flo green gold tip nock. That combo is always easy for me to see in flight and find. I do use a fletch cover though since those chartreuse "glow" in the dark.
