Add an inch to POC.
« on: November 04, 2014, 11:01:00 PM »
Is there an easy way to add one inch to the length of a POC shaft.  I have plenty of shafts that I cut and tapered.  But now that I have learn to use back tension.  My draw has lengthen one inch and I can not use the shafts as they are.  I have thought of adding an aluminum footing to get the length that I need. Plus be able to increase the spine of the shafts.  I have tried using the aluminum adapters on the taper.  This only weakens the spine with the addition of the 50 grs. How anyone heard of an inch long nock?

It is called Reparrow.
Has inside taper to match the normal taper on existing arrow. Just glue them on and make sure they are straight.

They work very well....much much better product than I expected.

You can also learn to put a hardwood footing on. A 2 foot splice is fairly simple, you can add a couple inches this way.

Woody weights will add to the length of the arrow shaft.
