I think they are pretty cool but they don't make one for my ACC's. I saw my first one shot when I was in NC with SBGobblers, Jeff put some in his carbons and I really thought they were cool. Helps to see the arrow in flight, the arrow after the shot etc.. expensive but cool...win/win.

I am using them for the first time this year and have taken a turkey and a doe with them. I really like them. It made it real easy for me to see my shots and I was able to follow my doe as she ran out of sight. I have had no problems with them not lighting or staying on after impacted

I have a couple. I like them, though double lunged a doe at 22 yrds. Could see the bright orange light hit the spot, but when it passed through and hit the ground it was off? I think that maybe it scraped a rib or something enough to push it back? Also like shooting them right before dark at target.

Haven't really shot them enough at live game to see how they perform.

I shoot carbon express 340's. I got the orange and white fletchings....to match the lumenok's.(jk)
They seem to stand out when I went to pick some out! They are all a little hard to see covered in that red stuff.

I have had the same problem, I shot a doe this year at about 15 yards, went thru both lungs, and the heart. Saw the bright red light right up to the point where it came out the other side of the doe. I thought the same thing, I think it pulled back out, and the light shut off when the nock went thru her. I think they are great tho. Every other time when I have shot them, they make it real easy to find your arrow. I give them 2 thumbs up.
