sssurfertim Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Ive been messing around with these new Nockturnal nocks and I like how they are performing. Its a pretty failproof system, and they are affordable. I took a video shooting, bow seems so much louder eccoing in a big empty shed. Don't preach to me about my shooting direction, I can see if people are comming from a long way. I have to shoot the lower right of my block target because its falling apart.

MuzzyLoader Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Good Shootin' Tim... How far away is your target? I shoot Lumenocks all the time - have never had a failure (except when the battery dies - and then I just replace it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bballhunter11 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I have used both G5 and Carbon Express lighted nocks and prefer the Carbon Express because they are easier to operate and more fail safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfertim Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 Yea I heard the G5's were junk, luminocks could have problems, and firenocks were good too but expensive. These nockturnals will be on all my arrows next fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpteach Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Nice shooting. Have been considering luminocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bballhunter11 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Yea the G5s turn on very well and show up good but after less than 5 shots you cant get them to turn off when i tried them 2 years ago. Venatic has good luck with the firenocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Make you own lighted nocks for less that $3 each . This was on you tube a couple years ago Here is one I made and shot in my basement http://s271.photobucke t.com/albums/jj146/parker-bows/?action=view¤t=LightedNock.flv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sssurfertim Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 yea i would definetly reccommend the Nockturnal nocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Ive tried different brands and made my own. The Carbon Express Lazer Eyes are the ones that I have found to be the best bang for the buck. The type with the replaceable batteries are just too pricey to be worth it to me. Ive had the same Lazer Eye that I bought to test out on my arrow for 2 seasons already, and it still works great. All of the rest of them that I had died after the 1st season. This past season I put the Lazer Eyes on all of my arrows. I havent tried the Nockturnals yet though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
