get sand paper make a small cone and sand the inside of your shaft not to much and then a kind of blackish power should be left on the sand paper then insert the nock and it should work great... For the colors i have read that red is the best color
@ultimatelaxplayer21 Thanks! I ended up using red exclusively. My son is using green so we can tell each others apart at distance. I'm really liking the Nocturnal brand so far.
@ultimatelaxplayer21 I did not try sand paper. I kinda just switch all my arrows to the nocturnal ones. I still have the others but I mainly use these nocturnals. My son shoots a Nuclear Ice bow and he uses green nocturnals. Those in conjunction with some blunt tips, we can find his arrows pretty easy when hunting rabbits. I did a video on Blunts and there is some footage of my son shooting in it.
I've been using Nocturnals for the last two seasons, and they work OK but they are not very bright during the day. Also, with complete pass through shots the switch gets full of blood and it's very difficult to wash it out. Once the blood gets in it and dries, the nock no longer turns on. Lastly they can bit a bit of a pain to turn off. I'm planning on trying out the Carbon Express nocks once I use up the nocturnals I have.
@masterkiter89 I settled on the Nocturtals and love'm. I've noticed with the recessed switch on the nocturnals that they are less likely to get turned off if the animal bumps into something or falls on the arrow and turns off the the lumenock kind. I've seen that 1st hand.
fits all and most arrows it is a really great nock im getting the lady pink my two buddies has these ones and the work great dont have to worry about magnet or that stupid brass ring. to turn on there switch activated by the string
@5Ivan7 Thanks! I tried some of the Nocturnal ones and they seem pretty good. I ordered some Lumenox online and it was the wrong size. Probably my fault so I ended up buying local so I was sure to get the right one. So far I am happy with them.
ya, These are great, used lumenok which was a waste. started last year with the lazer eyes from Carbon Express is awsome, sometimes a tight fit where its hard to turn the light back off. but lights well, we just did a 3d shoot with the lighted, one of the best things

@TexasNative00 Lumenoks are to Archery as Gun Powder is to Lead. Meaning, I wouldn't shoot and arrow without them.

The one from carbon express is made by Lumenok :)
By far orange is the best even on a sunny day

@drag0nzx Which one blinks instead of staying totally on? That might be easier to see in low light over a constant on. Thoughts?
