Gold Tip User' s...
 

Just a little heads up if anyone uses GoldTip arrows.

Throw the Locknocks in the garbage and get yourself some Easton' s Super 3D G' s. My accuracy GREATLY improved and my broadhead flight improved as well due to increasing my FOC. The GoldTip Locknocks weigh about 24 gr and the Easton' s are 12 gr, the Eastons also seem to fit my string better(not as tight as LockNocks).

I have been trying out some Goldtip 22 series for target practice and I found that an Easton 2117 unibushin fits perfect and along with an uninock it weights 3 grains less that the Goldtip locknock.

Dont have that problem I use magnocks.
They weigh 10gr' s and get perfect arrow flight with both broad heads and field points.
They only require 4.5 ounces of pressure to release with standard nocks it takes a lot more and they are also dependant on weather if it is cold they take more than if it is hot.

I know I wont be switching back to standard nocks any time soon

I might have to try them....thanks for the heads up!

I have tried Magnocks but I am not impressed, so far.

I have PERFECT bulletholes with regular nocks but had all kinds of tears with Magnock. I know you have to tune it a little different but the tears I was getting with Magnocks were NOT consistent. On 1 shot I would have a high tail right then tried another shot(with same arrow) and I would get high tear straight up. Then I would try again and high tail left. I decided that if I have PERFECT bulletholes and good grouping with field points and broadheads why would I switch. Maybe in the future I will try them out again....

To me the Magnock would just add 1 more complicated piece of equipment that could fail in the field. I prefer my hunting set-up to me simple and the less moving parts and gadgets on my bow the better. I do think, however, that Magnocks make sense for a target or 3D set-up.


Do you have any tips on setting up the Magnock to make things easier???

I' ve been shooting Goldtips for years and have always used the locknocks with no problems at all. I get bullet holes in paper along with great arrow flight with both field points and broadheads and there are many deer that will agree with me if they could:D
