Lighted nocks are awesome, but lumenok's are junk IMO....try these....

So how do the Archers Flame nocks activate differently from the others? I do not see anywhere on the site where it explains how they work.

They have a plunger that depresses when you shoot it. The major difference in them is that you have to glue a small dowel pin inside the arrow for the plunger to depress. It does add weight, but only about 5 grains. They are very simple to install, and are, IMHO, more durable and dependable.

I have used them for about 4 years now! My arrows are expensive and I don't like to loose one! I shot at a Yote this past Friday and he was in some Thick stuff and would of spent hours looking for my arrow stinking up my hunting stand area! I got out of the tree on the way out and grabbed my arrow without a problem and WITHOUT stinking up the place looking for an arrow!!!! A big plus in my book!

Never had a problem with them either!!!!! The Lumenoks are a great tool for me!

Ok that explains it. They basically work just like the home made ones that I use ocassionally. I do the exact same thing. Insert a wod dowel in the shaft and use the thill bobber lights.

I thought these lumenocks were the best thing ever....but after I starte practicing more with mine, it became evident that my arrows dropped so much more with them. So I won't hunt with them. I don't want to risk missing a deer.

Piebalddoe I guess my question to you is why not just sight in your bow again with the lumenoks installed. After changing your pins from shooting the other nocks everything should be good. Right?

I haven't shot an animal with them yet, but I like them as of now.

Just a little fyi...I picked a pack of brand new luminocks off of ebay for 21 bucks pluss a few in shipping. Saved about 8 bucks when buying them.
