Really looking forward to trying these Trad Vanes

I'm curious, definitely going to try some when they are available. Does anybody have pics yet? Do they look like normal vanes?

Yes they look like normal vanes. I have only seen solid colors so far. Prototypes came in 3'', 4'', and 5''.

Doubt I will get them before my spring bear trip but I will pick some up before fall.

Thanks Flint Kemper

I hope to have a sample pack program ready to go next week.
I'm thinking like an 18 pack with 2 colors - enough to do 6 shafts to try.

I'M IN

I already went to the DARK SIDE last year with an ILF and metal riser. I might as well go all in with vanes!

Honestly, I can not wait to try em!

Here you go with colors.

Not at this time. They designed and tested one that works. And spent 1000's bringing it to market.
If it makes sense, I'm sure they will be willing to try different molds.

When will the 3" be available?

Possum Head · May 23, 2019, 09:46:38 PM

I'll have to jump on a hot pink and white combo pack. Great idea! These will certainly be an advantage for frogging

Pfranchise · May 23, 2019, 10:32:28 PM

Went on the AAE site a few minutes after the release and put 3 packs of 3" in my cart and by the time I went to check out the site said they were backordered. What's up with that. What a bummer, I was looking forward to trying some. Hopefully the 3" will be back in stock soon.

azhunter · May 23, 2019, 10:41:25 PM

They don't have the 3" available yet. They released the 4" and 5" and hopefully soon the 3" will be avialable.

How much per 50?

Broken Arrows · May 24, 2019, 10:03:58 AM

So am I reading this right lick and stick? No need for glue?

I think you still need glue, but it has some sort of "activator" on the fletch. Would be nice to know if a specific glue will need to be used that won't react in a bad way with the activator.

Hopefully someone in the know will chime in.

What I saw was the 3" had a problem with the mold. Once they get the new mold ready they'll be out shortly. Didn't sound like it'd take too long really. I got a pack of 5" to try. Think it was $28.99 total shipped for a pack of 50. Love my feathers, but want to try these for sure.

Most any fast set gel adhesive should be ok. Going to work on getting more details as sonn as I finish playing "beat the mailman" for today
