New Nocks

[tcoop]

Hi everyone,

Finally got around to trying out my new Turbo Nocks (http://www.turbonock.com/index.shtml). They are nocks with vanes built in is the best way I could describe them. With them you no longer need vanes or feathers. They are suppose to spin the arrow sooner after leaving the string and faster than a normal fletched arrow.

Therefore, they are suppose to stabilize faster, fly straighter, and faster.

I didn't have time to shoot them very much, but what I found was that they are hitting 2-3 inches higher at 20 yards. I haven't had the chance to shoot them though a crony yet, but I'm assuming that the rise in impact is because they are faster as advertised.

I think I'm going to like them.

You need a whisker biscuit or a drop away with them.

I bet they don't fold up on a pass through like vanes or feathers do. Does that look like it may be a problem?

Myk,

No idea about the pass thru Q. Hopefully I'll be able to tell you this October. I think when I was talking to them at the IL Deer & Turkey Classic that the hunting nocks need to be glued in so they don't come off inside the animal on pass thru.

It's doubtful I'd use them anyway. I don't see myself using a Whisker Biscuit, and I don't like the idea of a drop away.

I like my feathers too much :)
