Post by Masboy »

Went an shot 5 shots today with the nox with new shafts an plastic nocks that came with the shafts an noticed it had a grove wore into it on the bottom right next to the cock vane about 1/8 inch away . then I went an checked my other arrows shot with plastic nocks from my vixen an same thing on them an on them it,s wearing in the shaft a little but not bad ? is this a common thing? I checked tiller on both bows an good an great acurracy . been shooting plastic now for awhile an no problems for now but this wear?

I can't say that its common but my only arrows with plastic nocks (BE Zombies) also have these grooves wore in them.

My plastic nocks seem to be a hair bigger than the shaft. I just went an Checked my aluminum arrows that have been shot alot in both my bows an they have the same thing on both sides of the cock vane an aluminum nocks so just riding the rail wear I guess . Thanks
