I just bought the tracers a couple months back... havent used them a whole ton yet... they seem to light up every time though which is a plus....because that is what they were made for.. however they arent as bright as some of the other ones....
i have the tracers, lume n nock or whatever, and an archers flame nock.... as season gets closer i will let ya know which ones work the best.... im thinking i like the archers flame nocks the best, then easton, then the lumenocks.....
I just dont like the fact that you have to have the magnet on the bow just to get the nock to light up... the 1st couple times i had the magnet fly off... if i wouldnt have been shooting from inside the house i would have never found it...suppose you could buy a stronger magnet.... and i thought about gluing this magnet down too

how much do the lighted nocks weight in grains? I like the Idea but have my FOC where I want it and my arrows shoot great.

Most are in the 25 gr area.

I'm going to try the Tracers this year. I tried the Illumi nocks last year, and didn't really care for them, because they all weighed a different amount and they didn't work all the time. I may have just got a bad batch, but anyway I'll try the tracers this year.

One guy I know has been playing with these(I'd like to, but I'm trying out fobs right now) anyway, he's holding the magnet on the riser with a covering of molehair. Seems to be working well for him. Might want to give it a shot.
