My first attempt at making my own, and I wanted something that would stand out in the fall leaf or snow cover. Not sure if I wanted blazers or 4 inch vanes but once I remove the inserts, add the Firenocks and shoot them, I should be able to form an opinion. Think Ischa might like em ??

For sure that'll make them easier to find! Plus you'll never have to worry about anyone stealing them:) Really though, they are nice looking arrows.

Take care...

they look good. i like the blazers best. i made some last week with the same easton arrows and cleaned the paint off with a razor knife so you look more at the wrap and blazers .i told the guys in the shop last night and they told me the paint comes right off with acetone so i tryed it and it works good .let us know witch shot better

I never thought I'd like pink either, but it's a great colour in the woods!

My 6yr old daughter made these for her crossbow. She loves PINK! It took me a month to talk her out of that Pink Vixen.

She really liked shooting my Equinox but it was too big for her. Even the Vixen didn't fit her that well. Im more concerned with her having proper shooting form than anything else. I just wish Excal made a smaller thumbhole stock. I really wanted another Excal but as long as she is comfortable shooting im happy.
