hi all,
can anyone measure for me how far from the back of the arrow minus the nock to the back of a blazer....i want to try and fletch blazer but not sure of it's position.

thank you

Same place you would put any other vane.....All vanes work better closer to the nock than farther away....

anyone w/ blazers please measure the distance i know they are more from the nock than 4" vanes........i'd appreciate it
thank you

Nope, mobow is right. The same distance. FYI, the back of my blazers are 7/8" from the back edge of my arrow, not the nock, which, get this, is the same distance that my 4" vanes are on my old arrows![8D]

My Blazers are also 7/8" from the back of the arrow.

Well gosh, I don't know why they would be....You use the same jig, same clamp, and use the same hash mark on said clamp.......I'm just not sure how that equates to them being in a differnt place than 4" vanes.......Or, perhaps I've done the folks at the shop an injustice by building their arrows wrong all these years........

With the vane only being 2" long, there is a bit of an optical illusion going on......

Yes they are the same.
