ANyone familiar with the lighted nocks such as Lumenock or others? If so, do they work? Any one better than the other? thanks.

havent tried em, but alot of people swear by the homemade ones that cost 3.50. just a thought. i like the concept that these lmenoks offer though cuz its impossible to track an arrow at dawn or dusk.

I have used Lumenock brand with great success,others have had mixed reviews.I am currently playing with the homemade one that have the rubber tubing.

Apparently there is the CARBON EXPRESS brand, LUMENOCK and the newest TRACER. The tracer is more dependable and goes on and off by way of small magnet mounted under the rest and activates on pass by rather than impact like the others.

What's this "homemade" one you refere to? Plans somewhere on the internet or where?

I dont know about them becuase i dont want the extra weight in my arrow. But my buddy has some of them and e said they are ok but the batterys die way to fast.

I've used both Lumenoks and Tracers. I prefer the Tracers. I thought I'd hate the magnet, but I'll take it over having to wiggle my nock loose everytime I want to turn it off.

I tried them and i did not like them very much.

i think i might try them next year as well. The ultra lite tracer looks like it worth trying.

another good use for them, is when tracking you can turn one on & stick in the ground. Makes a good reference point for first blood sighted, point of impact, etc. You can really see them in dusk/dawn. I overshot a deer in some pines & would have lost that arrow, but u could see the lighted nock as clear as a bell. I know I would have had an extrememly hard time locating that arrow w/o the Lumenock. There definitely was a forum here that actually had 2 ways of making your own. I just can't find them here. Does anyone know the links?
