Lighted Nocks vs. Regular for Hunting?

[jjaimes]

Which would you guys recommend? For videoing lighted nocks look cool and also can help seeing the path of the arrow but what about if your not videoing?

I like em with or without videoing because it helps me see my impact spot better....

[Hard Knocks]

I like em all the time also,helps to see impact,as well as locating the arrow

Do they change your point of impact if you replace your regular nocks with them?

A lighted nock weighs about 10-15 grains,the increased weight over a regular nock is so minimal, that I doubt impact would be affected under 40 yds or so.but I guess that really depends on your setup

I like them hunting, practicing both

I just shoot regular nocks. Lighted nocks are cool and a great tool if they work for you. I have not found any that were super reliable or durable. That is even more so the case with my injexion arrows. Also, for me it changed my point of impact so that drove me nuts. I do think nokturnals are about the best. If I only shot 20-30 yards at whitetails and pigs I would shoot them.

I second Nockturnals. Especially the newer ones. I shoot the green LED, and they light up like a beacon flying towards the target. Definitely helpful in lowlight hunting situations to see your impact. I hunt pigs and whitetail pretty much exclusively, so I don't shoot anything past 35 yards or so.

Lighted nocks have allowed me to bring home many arrows that would have otherwise been left behind.

I've been using Nocturnals for years. I think they are the best ones out there. Never had an issue with them not working. I do break quite a few, but that's normal for our country. They not only help you see the point of impact MUCH better, but they help a lot when trying to find your arrow after the shot.

I require my paying hunters to use lighted nocks.
