Lighted nocks for Red Hot bolts
First- the nock must be .300. They will press fit nicely. I use the ones sold by Parker Xbow co. 2. They are easy to mount, turn on/off easy and claim 40 hours battery life. The batteries can be replaced too. 3. Come in red or green.
My dealer was out and sold me another brand. It is green lighted, comes with a sliding collar or ring that allows for practice shots. However the one time I shot it at a deer it was lit going in, passed through, and not lit exitting! I finally found the bolt two days later in some grass just 20 feet beyond where the deer was shot. The
light came on and off as designed but I am disappointed with the exit issue. Red Hots only now.
