Default illuminocks and rages

So I got my rage heads flyin just howI wanted last nite and thought well maybe i should put a illuminock in and see if they shoot the same, sure enough the arrow dropped about 3in at 30 yds. SoI made my adjustments accordingly and now I'm good to go. Just wanted to share this with everyone as a reminder to shoot everything the same as you are going to hunt with! 3 inches may no matter to some people but to me it's a big deal.

Not sure why your getting that drop, I'm shooting the lumenocks with rage heads and haven't found any change in flight, how far out are you pulling out the nock, I've done that a few times, pulling the nock too far to see what happens and had the arrow go down from loss of tranfered energy. Atleast you've made the adjustment, good luck.

You know I do pull the nock out just a hair so the light stays off, that could be part of the problem possibly.
