Alright, need a little help. I shoot Beman Team Realtree arrows. I decided to have them refletched, not for need, just for looks. I fletched half with 2" Twister vanes. I bought camo tre orange feathers to do the other half. I can not find a wrap that I think will look good with these feathers. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking that a black fading to orange would be cool, but can't find anything.
 
I like white for visibility and looks . I use Orange and black barred feathers.

leave m off it throws of FOC. If FOC is something you are worried about.

Haha...how can you tell him that without even knowing his arrow setup??????

No matter the set up, if you add weight to the back of the arrow it will affect the balance point thus affecting the FOC. It will throw it off. When it comes to FOC the more the merrier, right? I shot a 28" arrow with 2.3 duravanes and a gt nock, insert and 100grn field point and I got 11% FOC. I added wraps and it went to like 9.5% if I remember correctly. Just speaking from my experiance.
 
7" Printed wraps average 8-10gr. . I have never noticed a significant difference in arrow flight with these wraps . They group with my un-wrapped arrows . Stay away from reflective and luma (glow)wraps if FOC is a concern . They are much heavier than printed wraps , and will effect FOC . My FOC with a 100gr. point and 4" feathers with wraps runs right at 13% , a good percentage for a hunting arrow .

a more balanced FOC will cause for less arrow drop at longer ranges...yeah we are spliting hairs here now.

For wraps, I go white as well. I shoot blazers, all white and cut the 7 in wraps in half to get more bang for my buck.

Then I have whoever my girlfriend is at the time or my mom (usually my mom) write the names on the arrows.

Mom drew the line real hard at writing "Fawns a Floppin" on one though.
 
I don't know about matching your feathers but I wanted something other than plain white so I went with these.

I would browse this website. If you don't find anything you like send them a pic of your feathers and they can probably come up with something for you.
