Any of you guys use these? I bought a 3 pack and put them on 3 of my arrows. Target shooting was pretty cool with them, but using them for hunting is even better. In a thread earlier, you might remember that i missed three doe because I had never practiced with broadheads and was shooting from over 35 yards away. Well, these lumenocks made finding those arrows easy as pie. Spent about $25 for three of them, but was able to recover all three arrows because of them.

They are cool but they will affect your shot at longer distances compared to your regular nocks. Just make sure if you're going to hunt with them, practice with them only.

only after you get out past 35 yards.

shot a doe with them last year at 40 yards and she was even looking at me perfect double lunger and i knew it even before i found her the nock was awesome lit up the whole way went threw her and stayed lit in the ground found my blood trail and she only went 30 yards. wont shoot at a deer without them. however i cant say they ALWAYS light up but you can fix them so they do! bottom line is they help and its cool to watch in low light conditions.

I dont use them but my wife does. They get expencive if your shooting alot and here is a little tip I did for her practise. If you have a scale weigh out a Luminock. (34 grains) Take your standard nocks and glue a aluminum nail in the back. then put it on the scale and grind the nail down to the weight of the Luminock. Now you can practise all day long with the same weight nocks on your practise arrows without wasting the battery life of the luminocks or chiping the ends or your arrows that seems to happen when you shoot carbons alot with the luminocks.
