The Offspring, being a compound bow, does not have enough down force from the string to use a flat nock. On release, the string will do a bit of a dance on the deck as it rides down the rail.
Care to buy a comma? :mrgreen:

and to remain on topic: why deviate away from excalibur's recommended nock? Keep it simple and less to go wrong in the heat of the moment.

no no don. You lack the polkadots, fingerless gloves and the side bangs. But you are really happy and cheerful! & I think that's where the similarities end.

dave mentioned music, you mentioned comma. Brain comes up with an ear worm from 1980. Sometimes it sucks to be me.
