Lighted nock's

Post by steve rodo »

I decided to have all the new BE shaft's with lighted nock's.
19'' long .brass insert,110 gr.
Ive never had lighted nocks ,so this will be a good experience for me ,I usually kill all my deer around dark thirty in the eve ,last 10 minutes of light .

What's your thought 's on the lighted nocks?

The wife said she wanted Luminocks after seing them perform on Wild TV on many occasions and again recently at Boofest. I have never tried them and this season will be a first. We both like the idea of being able to watch the arrow flight path and see your hits, another valuable asset is increasing the odds of finding your arrow after the shot.

Go with the Lumenocks. The ones that fit Goldtips are the ones you are looking for at .301 ID. GTF3 is the code of the website.
They fit tight in BEEs. I took my pocket knife and shave a tad of plastic off mine and can turn them off with finger pressure. Took about 5 minutes to do 3 of them.
They do weight a little more. I think I added one click up on my scope to compensate.

that's what jerry sell's lumenock's red 300 id
I'm gonna like the added weight though .

I believe they were an extra $10.00 per area with lumenock's

Almost $200.00 in a dozen arra's .
Bout $16.00 an arra for a dozen .

Has anyone tried the illuminated firebolts? I see they're more than twice as much as the regular ones. Is it worth it?
