I know four different scorers for P/Y and B/C and all have said that it is not against the club rules to use lighted nocks....
Very interesting.....
Pope and Young Club Bowhunting Big Game Records of North America Fifth Edition
Page 69 Paragraph 7: "Further, with regard to electronics, the Club's updated Fair Chase rule specifically disallows animals taken: 'By the use of electronic devices for attracting, locating,
or pursuing game, or guiding the hunter to such game or by the useof a bow or
arrow to whichany electric device is attached."
Page 70 Paragraph 1: "First,
disallowing electronics on the hunting bow and arrows was a simple black and white issue....Either you do or you don't have any electronic device attached to the bow and arrow. It's that simple. Club President G. Fred Asell clearly explained the rationale behind this action:"
'We simply drew a line in the sand....Consequently, a decision was made to
disallow the use of
all electronics on the bow
and arrow. ...
Again it applys to all electronics - past, present and future-
on the bow and the arrow and it only applies to those bowhunters seeking to enter animals into the record book.
Incidently, the Boone and Crockett Club has similar rules about the used of electronics.'
