NYBuckHunter27 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 i shoot the carbon express maxima red 250s with the launch pad collar on the nock area, i was wondering if you have to use the carbon express lighted nocks in-order to get the launchpad collar back on the arrow? i noticed last year when using nocturnal lighted nocks that they will slide right out of the shaft of the arrows...

deerpassion Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I also shoot carbon express but the maxima hunters 350's using nocturnals, couldn't use the collar which prevented the nock from getting seated , so just did away with the collar n been workin fine ever since... I gotta say though make sure you get the right size nocturnals for carbon express cause they do make a smaller size as well ... Haven't used the launch pads but it seems to be a common theme that lighted nicks won't work with the collars... Collar in my opinion isn't that important anyhow...

G-Man Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 there are many different sizes of lighted nocks make sure you buy the right ones. not sure about your collar issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hock3y24 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Those collars arnt worth keeping on hunting arrows, the nockturnals work well in cx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfdeputy2 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Agree I have to remove the collar on both the Red Zones & Mayhem hunters & with evey lighted nock I have tried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYBuckHunter27 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 thanks guys! do you know the specific nocturnals that work with maxima red 250s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfdeputy2 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Nocturnal S for Carbon express arrows we started last year using Afterburn lighted nocks (found on Ebay) they are the same as the Nocturnals last as long & we thought they were brighter & a lot cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I shoot the carbon express maxima kv hunters. i thought carbon express lighted knocks would work well and fit good but they dont. They're not that bright and one broke just trying to put it together. carbon express was good about sending me another one, but the guy on the phone acted like it was common. i'd stay away from their knocks. Their arrows however are awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
