    Blue is good if you run a light all the time... Otherwise blue is the worst for picking up light.

    On my previous sight, I changed the fiber to blue bright fibers and to be honest. Worked great. I will say like J mentioned when back in the woods in really low light, I had to use my light. But most of the time it worked good for me. Now, I always run my light most of the time so, I really dont pay attention.

    I use a 0.010 blue pin for spots and outdoors. Works fine and I shoot in some prety bad lighting conditions.

    With my eyesight, I can't see blue very well. I see the green great.

    Yeah it was shooting really good that day, I was calm and relaxed and in a good mood for once.

    Shot my first 5 spot in over ten years the other day. 283 Not what I was shooting ten years ago. A bad day then was a 296. Oh well. It was a indoor bow only so less draw wieght. Guess thats my only thing I would change with my Afflixtion. Went with the 60-70 pound limbs. At 47 rotatar cuff give me a few problems. So I plan on getting some 50-60 pound limbs. Also all new form. Have shoot off the string with a kisser since I started 20 years ago. Now a d-loop and no kisser. Only three weeks into this change. Getting better everday. Guess it will take sometime.
