Flat nock only. I tried some and accuracy is erratic.
Some people just like stepping on rakes

WARNING! Do not use moon nocks on Excal bows... Omni's (universal) are not very accurate. Stay with the flat nocks only!

Don't care fer the omni nor the half moon nocks. I do use Firenock Q's on 2 of my Excals using a Ten Pt. brush as an arrow retainer. I have had nice accuracy out to 60 yds on one Excal n 35 yds on my lil Pipsqueak

Vixen I was just thinking about trying a TP brush retainer on my Vixen II today. I really don't like how far the arrow retainer sticks out after adding the Guardian on the bow! I ordered one on the thought that if it doesn't work, then I'll have a spare for my Titan HLX. ;) I only use flat nocks even on my TP! I definitely do NOT like the Omni nocks! Good luck

It should do well, i need to correct my post Marie Laveau uses Q nocks n brush. Pipsqueak uses brush but flat nocks

In my exomax the half moon shoot better than the flat however in the micro the flat seem to shoot better.

A lot of the accuracy depends on the tiller of the bow a bow with not perfect tiller seems to do best with flat nocks at least that's my experience.
