Default RE: Can I cut Goldtips from the back?

FYI for anyone not doing this already...........

I got this tid bit of advice from Tim Gillingham from Gold Tip and it works great. Instead of glueing in nockbushings ornocks, take a garbage bag and hold over the nock end of the shaft and push the nock or nock bushing through the bag and into the shaft. This will allow the bushing to sit in the shaft tightly so it won't fall out or turn without you wanting it to, but will also allow you to pull it out easily if needed in the future. I was having a lot of problems last season with wrecked nocks and bushings from being hit by my arrows and other peoples arrows and then would have to scrap the shaft due to messing something up trying to get it out........this fixes that problem.
