Default Wal-Marts Lazer Eye Lighted Nocks

Just bought a two pack of the Carbon Express Lazer Eye lighted nocks from Wal-Mart for $15.99, and i am shocked at how good they fit and how well they operate. The only draw back i see from the high dollar ones is that the battery life is only 7 hours on these.

Just thought i would share for those of you interested in trying a lighted nock, but are afraid of wasting $35-$40 on the big brands.

Try to explain this rule. They aren't legal to hunt with in Idaho. They just reviewed the rule this year and decided to keep it the way it is. I'm trying to grasp the rationale.

I can't even fathom why they would do that? Did they give some kind of reason?

Keep in mind that 7-hour rating is continous; you'll only have yours on probably 15 minutes or so by the time you shoot, wait a bit and get down to retrieve your arrow...

I've been making my own too for a couple years, and they look exactly like these... except I've got about $2 apiece in mine and they work fantastically.

Well, there is a blanket law in effect against electronic or tritium powered devices for bowhunting and I guess they didn't want to make this exception for some reason. I'ts beyond me.
