The new ones have been impregnated with a nylon polymer and WILL still break but they take MUCH more abuse than last years.
With my experiences shooting these nocks. You literally have to be at close range and hammer them together vane on vane to cause damage.
I wanted to see if they were tough, so I shot them at 5yards or less in my room. After about a dozen ends shooting at a single spot I finally got vane on vane contact enough to cause damage. Before that I was smacking my arrows together, of course being such a short distance and never had a single nock break.
These are really tough as nails.[8D]
