Installing new arrow nocks
Im sure someone has found this it but just in case,
I found that keeping the nocks on my arrows is 200X easier when I mixed super glue and Gorilla glue together and put it inside the nocks and set it onto the arrow. The Gorilla glue takes a while to dry but I think its 10x better than epoxy and when its mixed with superglue the superglue takes hold right away and sets it up for the Gorilla glue to dry eliminating the need for vices and such. But the only bad thing is gorilla glue creates like a foam that will run outta cracks but its pretty easy to sand down.
Just an idea. What do you use to hold the nocks on?

RE: Installing new arrow nocks
The old standby Fletch tite will work but I tend to use something that may be a little stronger likesome of the newertwo part epoxies that I use in my rod building. I don't like to use the real fast drying super glues unless I have to since they are not always very forgiving of my clummsy fingers, but then there's always some in the tackle box for quick on the boat repairs. Goat Tuff and Gorilla glue will work just fine.
