Carbon express surge plastic flat nocks

Post by Flswampwalker »

I want to change my plastic flat nocks to Alum nocks. Does anyone know where I can get some? Easton's metal nocks are too large.

Just a question, why do you want to swap them? I use them and have less problems with them than metallic nocks.
It increases your FOC, the arrow groove doesn't get scraped up and a nick in the nock (I'm a poet) will not cut your string.

I had a semi dry fire with this one arrow. After inspecting the nock, I saw a flat spot on the nock and thought that may have cause the semi dry fire.

If I happened to me I would be more inclined to blame it on a BF rather than the bow or the arrow. Did it happen again?

No I went back to the moon nock and it shot just like the other one now. I think the string got under the flat spot and just caught the vane. Vane was bent after the first shot.

I corrected the vane and put the moon nock on and it shoots like nothing happened.

Yep! :mrgreen:
Moon nocks are a no no. You will never make a mistake indexing with a flat nock and moon nocks will not allow the arrow track to guide the arrow if there is not a perfect alignment between the center of the mock and the center of the string. Some moon nocks like to split.
But some set ups will allow the use of them.
Happy shooting!
