Anyone shoot big glue on nocks on carbons?

I love the old wood/aluminum erra large nocks. Nirk nocks are my favorite. I was just looking at the aluminum tapered nock adapters.
I kinda love the idea of having nirk nocks on my carbons. Sooo much easier to blind nock.
Any of you fellas do this?

I have done this on damaged carbons. if a carbon has a crack on the nock end I will remove the nock and sand down a 1/4" wood dowel to fit the shaft, glue in a small piece, then use my tapering tool to re-taper the end and install a glue-on nock. Then I glue a 1/4" piece of aluminium shaft (of the right size) against the nock.

i just started using the nock adapters for my carbon arrows this spring.
and I really like being able to feel the larger locate tabs on the nocks, and also I can get a real yellow nock and not a chartruese yellow nock. and the weight of the adapter isn't enough to make a change in the arrow.
so...yep I do...and I likem.

Yes. I use the glue-in/glue-on nock adapters and Bohning classic nocks. It is a bit of extra work making up arrows but I believe I end up with a better arrow. And I really like the larger index fin on the Bohning nocks. I also use the glue-in/glue-on point adapters and then use glue-on broadheads and field points. I end up with a sturdy custom carbon arrow that I trust completely.

Been using the glue in adapters for years, better feel for me with alot more choices plus they don't pop out when you hit something solid
