Q2i fusion xII 2.1 vane question...

[SnapT]

Would 3 Q2i fusion xii 2.1 be enough to steer a fixed blade head (iron will 100 wide to be specific) ???? They would be out of a arizona ez fletch so some helical there to say the least .

cheers

I've used them for 3 years and have really liked them. I recently switched to get a vane slightly smaller in profile because I was flirting with the vanes making contact.

They are tough.

Easy to apply

Durable

Stick on wraps really good.

Probably a question for Bill. But I would say no way. You shouldn't have to ask if you have enough vane when shooting a fixed head. It would be better to have to ask yourself if you have too much vane.

Thanks . I've seen them used in 4 fletch config but was wondering if 3 fletch would be okay .
I'm using 3 aae hybrid 26's right now but am looking at a new arrow build . Plus I'm new and am not sure lol .

Should be fine. They are close to blazer size aren’t they?

I’m shooting Flex fletch Sk200’s They steer my ironwills great

they are .43 height so i was wondering if i would have to go 4 fletch or if the helical from the ez fletch would be enough .
cheers

You steer a broadhead with height not length. The conventional 2 inch Blazer type vanes are created to get maximum height with maximum helical or offset. You can turn a shorter vane at alot harder angle than a longer vane. You want 3 degrees if you can get it. A lot of guys are having good success with a 4 fletch Blazer. Kyle Douglas (Vegas winner) shoots 4 fletch with Rapt X vanes on a .204. So even the pros are seeing the benefit of alot of steering. If your bow is tuned perfectly, and your form is exactly perfect than you can get away with any vane you want. However when your jacked and your heart rate is through the roof your going to want maximum steering.

Yea that’s a good point. Minimal fletching works well when everything is perfect. But In a hunting scenario more fletching can be a good thing

I use the Q2i xii's but run a four fletch with a 3 degree helical...with 125gr head. I love them. Low profile, quiet and sturdy as all get out. Fletch them with the LCA vane master pro.

I would be a bit hesitant to try them in a 3 vane configuration with broadheads though.

Damn ya take a yearlong nap or what?!

 

[justin davis]

Haha. Yep

LOL. And just to clarify......the Q2i Fusion Xii vanes are a lower profile vane......not the Fusion II's that are like Dumbo ears on an arrow.
