Lighted nock recommendations

[Scott E]

What brand do you guys like for lighted nocks?

I really like nocturnals, steer away from the carbon express ones, they're crap.

For hunting, I like the nockturnals because they come on and stay on and are not likely to fail. For 3D and target practice, I like the lumenocks because they are easier to turn off, but they sometimes fail to light in the first place.

I don't get that either.  I see that as hurting the game population in NO way conceivable but as a tool that MAY lead to a recovered animal versus a wasted life.

If you have trouble turning the nockturnals off, they have come out with a tool to help. Meant to order one on my last 3 Rivers order, but forgot...looks pretty handy though:  http://www.3riversarchery.com/Nockturnal+Installation+Removal+and+Turnoff+Tool_i6728_baseitem.html

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Looks like nockturnal is the winner.

They were illegal in Colorado until this year's season, 2015.  I could never understand the logic behind it either.

I just bought a pack of nockturnals and a pack of the new Nock-Outs. I think I like the Nock-Outs better. You can lock them off for practice, they come with bushings so that one size fits all normal arrow sizes and they are a lot easier to turn off which I guess that could be a pro and con!

I also use Nocturnals. I only use them to find my arrows after the shot. Even shots taken in the morning will still be glowing at dusk. Found a few arrows in the dark I never would have found without them.

If you chose to use them you should practice with them. If they trigger during draw and you aren't accustomed to it, it could lead to a botched shot.

They hold zero value to me for "seeing the shot" or finding game. Simply an arrow recovery tool. My two cents.

I bought some nocturnals for the Easton g nocks uni-bushing, but they do not fit, too big and will not go into the uni-bushings. any suggestions?
