Vanes for Fixed Blades & New Easton 5.0

[mrwilsn24]

Just got a dozen of the new Easton 5.0 shafts. Trying to decide what vane to run. Currently between the AAE Airazr 26s, Pros, or the DCA Mini-Sabres. I shoot the 26s currently so I’m mainly looking for input on the other options. Broadheads are the TOTA V-Series. Any info you all can provide will be appreciated. This will be my Spring Bear and fall Elk/Mule Deer arrow.

If you are doing strictly fixed blades. 1000 percent the airazr 26's. trust me. I went down the whole smaller vane thing for a while trying to save a couple grains on the back and be quieter. I am now running 3 Hybrid HP's max helical and couldn't be any happier. And I shoot both mech and fixed. Way happier with 3 bigger vanes and how they perform all around.

I’ve really loved the Airazr 26s so far. What’s your opinion on the larger Super Sabres instead of the minis?

Personally i've never tried the DCA Sabres. I've heard some really good things about them and they are supposed to be awesome.

Really tempted to go with those just to try something new.

Just get some Easy Vanes and be done with it, mate. I started using them a couple of years ago and I'll never go back to regularly fletching arrows.

I shot the super Sabres last year. Worked great, but they’re pretty tall so you gotta watch sight and cable clearance. Also highly recommend using their using suggested Bob smith maxi cure. I didn’t last year and had some adhesion issues.
Trying the mini Sabres this year, been good so far but I haven’t taken them outdoors yet.
