Where do you get the Rod n Bob Thill light from?

My rule-of-thumb is that adding weight to the back of an otherwise correctly tuned arrow requires four times as much weight to be added to the front. Maybe the broadhead will have to be stepped-up 25 -50 grains? Thanks.Kevin

I tried the red lighted nocks today about 1/2 hour before dark.. they are bright. I don't see them as an advandage in shooting but can see how it may help in finding game. many times right at dark I have had a group of hogs feeding all arround me, I make the shot and hogs run everywhere and I loose track of the one I just shot, I often hear it pile up and give the death squeal but not always. I don't always get a pass thru or a good blood trail either, I think these lighted nocks may help me recover the hogs faster, faster is better when it's 90 degrees out.
