HALO NOCKS vs. NOCKTURNAL Lighted Nocks

[@YonderWizerd]

If your lighted nocks are a little tight on your string I recommend taking a piece of sand paper and evenly shaving a small amount at a time till they fit.

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

I've also done that, but it's hard to do it evenly. If you are going to run them, I would just let your bow shop serve your string to them so you have a great fit.

[@brysonhollar]

Or re-serve the center serving with smaller diameter material.

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

@brysonhollar thats always an option for sure.

I like the new Halo nocks, but I hasdno issues with the older nockturnals, turning them off, I just would carry a nail, in the foam piece, in the hood of my quiver.

[@willknott4796]

Waiting on mine from Amazon. My dad it also running them this year, so far so good. I’ve had nockturnals in the past n was always annoyed with them. Also had double take’s previous version called glory nock. They were good too.

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

They are working out great. I do need to make a small adjustment to my D-loop but that's it.

[@willknott4796]

@@MichiganAmBushOutdoors yes I had to redo my d loop as well.

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

Good luck this season!

[@willknott4796]

@@MichiganAmBushOutdoors thanks man, good luck to you too. How was your Kentucky hunt?

[@jeremywise5473]

Question in regards to nock fit on the halo. I just bought a custom string and had them fitted for Halo nocks .166 but as you said they are snug. They don't spin freely on the string or freely slide up and down the serving as I like, but my string maker said they would be to loose if he went smaller. Does that sound normal to you for the Halo's ? They don't feel like they clip on to tight, but like I said just don't have the play in the throat I'm going for?

[@IIDASHII]

I ran Halo nocks this year, and unfortunately they were useless. All my shots were in the morning after sunrise. I couldn't see the nocks as they flew and I couldn't see them from my stand. I had to search all over to find them on the ground (Had a buck, doe, doe triple up (!!) in a brushy area). I can see there being a low-light scenario where these actually help, but I'm either going to go back to nockturnals (super bright) or I'm not going to use lighted nocks at all. I can't be dropping $12/nock on nocks that don't serve their intended purpose.

[@billpluff4064]

Great video. If the nock does put some wear on your serving.... just do not shoot them all the time. Make sure of course they impact/tune with broadheads. After that, just shoot regular nock.

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

Thank you, and thanks for watching. The only problem with switching back to a regular nock is that your point of impact will be different because they are much lighter.

[@inskinov412]

Will these only automatically shut off when im sighting in the nocks in my driveway, or will they work at the range too????

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

When shooting in your driveway, the light will shut off when you nock/re-nock the arrow.

[@inskinov412]

Only in the driveway, ok, thank you. 😆

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

I should have said they will shut off as soon as you nock the arrow. It doesn't matter where you are 🤣.

[@alexwalsh3694]

Awesome video 😊

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@mr.skeptical3071]

So at the end of an evening hunt, when you take your arrow off to put into quiver, this thing is going to go off?? That sux that you cannot take it off the string in the dark without it lighting up!

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

It takes two seconds to shut it off

[@IIDASHII]

This is not the case. All you have to do is press on the side button with your thumb as it comes off the string. I've never had them light up on me the way you just described.

[@stevie9361]

Small round file opens it up a bit

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

I'd recommend reserving the string.

[@jkgkjgkijk]

Nice buck

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

Thanks!

[@EdwardMcCormick-o6d]

NOCTURNAL has a switch now

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

I noticed that. Finally!!

[@alexbetts452]

JUST SERV YOUR STRING TO FIT YOUR PREFERRED NOCK. And nock pinch comes from vertical pinch on top and bottom of the nock not from nock throat size. Good lord

[@MichiganAmBushOutdoors]

Exactly, so when you go to full draw being that this is a bigger nock you may see the vertical pinch and it will likely require you to adjust your d-loop.
