Default fletching color

According to the big C. Chuck Adams, red is the perfect color. He was against white because of how game see it.

What do you think?

I think by the time they see it, it's too late anyway. I honestly can't believe a deer would look up, see brightly colored, or even white fletches, and think....DANGER DANGER DANGER.......If something spooks them, it's the big black blob next to the bright colors that keeps moving....

I agree, I don't think they will see the flething until it's too late.

I'm with ya brother......My indoor arrows are X7's w/three 4" pink feathers.....If you want a color that really stands out, pink is the deal. The absolute BRIGHTEST combo I've ever seen is 2 pink and 1 yellow....
