Default Luminoks for CB ?

Do they make them?
Anyone make them yourself?

They do make them. I tried some on my Excal Exocet last year. First shot sent the Luminoc about 2 inches down into my Gold Tip Carbonarrow shaft, splintering the nock end to pieces! I don't use them anymore!!

I have heard some good and some bad about the Luminoks with crossbows. This other brand of lighted nocks, I have heard only good reports. I have not heard of failures or not coming on like I have heard of with the Luminoks.

I have not tried them YET .... but I am thinking very seriously of geting a few fro Tracer.

I just followed this link, these Tracers look good! I don't like the 30 grains of nock weight too much, but I think I could learn to live with it..

i've had good luck with luminocks and now use them on all my arrows. the only size available so far is for 2219's. if you use them for anything else.....they need to be trimmed....or shimmed whichever may be the case. a little expensive, but they have saved a few arrows that otherwise would have been lost. invaluable when hunting.....i'll never hunt w/o them again.[8D]

I only use them when puching targets. The light tells you what is happening good or bad. I got mine from The Bow Shop http://www.bow-shop.com/
