Lighted Nocks, Best price I found

In replacing my compound bow, and doing lots of online shopping in the U.S I have found some pretty sweet deals.
Including a dozen lighted Nocks for $50($57 if you include shipping to Canada, but in US$)

They run off the same platform as the Nokturnals for anyone who used those before, these are identical, except you get alot more for the price.

Mine took 7 days to get here from the States, with no additional fees/ brokerages etc.

I know currently selection is limited to two colors, and only S type fitment.(which is what alot of the comman arrows are)
you can email em to find out if they will fit your arrows.

They fit my Carbon Express Mayhem Hunters(250 and 350)

Just thought I would share, if you use lighted nocks or wanting to, this is the best deal I could find by far.

They also are getting very good reviews, I haven't shot mine yet, but confirmed they all turn on etc.

Good luck,
thanks,

thats a great deal for sure,, thanks for the post

Thanks for the info. I looked into getting a few Nockturnal nocks last fall but I use Easton XX75 aluminum shafts and apparently inserts are required and I could not find any in-store so ended up putting it off until this year.

I doubt I would want a dozen (I note they listed singles and smaller quantity packs too), no reason to have that many, after all how many separate shots do you need? I wonder what the shelf life of the battery would be.

Are these Asian knock-offs? There was a lot of chatter last year about Luminox not being that great (not working every time) and that Nockturnals were way better. Give us some feedback after you have used them for a while. :thumbup:

Here is a great independent review by a member of the archery talk boards, on 6 different brands of lighted nocks. He breaks it down into a bunch of catagories, and number of shots, all the way to 200 with how they fair after each round. A good read.

That was a great read! Thanks for the link!

I wish the Nokturnal was tested in that article....good info

I have the same nocks as described by the original poster of this thread. I picked them up last July or August. I got the full dozen because I like to shoot my hunting setup as much as possible after the winter indoor is done. These nocks have performed very well for me so far with no issues. Got my deer on a late season snow storm hunt right after Christmas and the brutal conditions didn't bother them at all. I have the Nockturnals as well, and I can't see a difference with them other than price, $35 for three Nockturnals or $60 (landed cost CAD$) for a dozed from these guys. Great deal.

I've used almost every one of these over the years and had issues with them all.

So far the Nocturnals are my current choice.

And ... I can't see any reason to have more then 3.

They are reusable from arrow to arrow and how many shots is the average bowhunter going to get.

I fired 5 arrows last year and retrieved them all. Still have all 3 Nocturnals ...

I sure hope the batteries are still good come September!

Great deal thx !!

I've been trying to run a few nockturnals out of juice. Crazy how long they last. If an independent review didn't test them,,, its because they had one that they wanted to win. Nockturnals are far and away ,, the best !!!!!

I'm using Nockturnals as well now. I even got them for my crossbow arrows too. They work EVERYTIME, unlike my PILE of Lumenoks, and are super bright too.

Just ordered a six pack, 3 red / 3 green, decisions, decisions, lol. I was planning on nockturnals but at this price, it's worth a try.

They been bought out by field logic who,s using different supplier and it not good ,a lot of complain about different sizes in pack of 3 and failure ,again a small successful business being taking over by the profit oriented big Biss :sad:

I had ordered a pack of 3 green 3 red from these guys (TGB) about three weeks now!! Called them the other day to see where my order was, after buddy finished chewing his food in my ear, he said "ya I thunk a pack of 3 green 3 red went out the other day, so you'll get them"

Lets see when I actually get them, and hopefully they work good enough to justify the wait etc. Not happy so far with TGB Archery.

T.O.

GOT THEM! Checked the mail box friday and there they were Finally!!!

Fit my GT 5575 arrows perfect, seem to shoot well so far and are very bright (got both colours) Only time will tell now on how they hold up.

T.O.

Mine arrived May 7th but I haven't had a chance to try them yet. Glad to hear positive vibes. I just might take one on Monday when I go for turkey with the compound.

As I previously posted, I bought a six pack, 3 red, 3 green. I did not look them over very closely or turn them on manually to check them but just grabbed one of the green ones and put it on one of my arrows. First shot and nothing! Worked it manually and it flickered. I've worked it manually several times since and it seems to work now, maybe just a bit of internal wear on the plastic was needed to smooth things out. I manually tested all the others and they worked OK. I feel better now.

Ordered some 3 weeks ago, based on the good reviews in this thread. Still did not receive anything and they wont respond to my emails. Are these guys reputable? I will try calling them then I am thinking of contacting Paypal next.

Ahuntr, they have a good rep with archerytalk. Did you get tracking info? I cant remember if I did. Sucks its taking so long. And also not good the delay getting back to you. they were quick responding to mine, but I wait to hear how you make out.

Apart from the PayPal receipt, I got nothing; no tracking number; no shipping notification. My items were in stock, so I do not know what happened. I will wait a bit more but now it's getting to a month.

It took about 3-4 weeks for me to get mine. Had called and spoke to a guy who said they were on there way and a day or two later they showed up. Maybe thats all you have to do is call and light a fire under there as I did. Have a feeling they might be making them on demand kind of thing.

T.O.

Finally called and got a tracking number showing they were on their way and was told they were "back ordered" until May 29 (the date of my first email to them). Everything came as ordered.

How much do lighted nocks improve your shots?

Improve your shots? no, they would change your overall arrow weight, depending on the weight of your regular nock, versus lighted and may have to re-tune. But their primary use is tracing your shot, and assist in arrow/game recovery.

OK, I'm resurrecting this thread from last year, as a follow-up to my own question about battery shelf life of these TGBARCHERY lighted nocks. I've started pre-season shooting already this year and my nocks (received in April last year) still light up. I did have one of six show a wonky switch with intermittent function right from the get go, but the other five worked fine. I shot the nocks last year during pre-season but that's all :(

I also run these lighted nocks for my arrows. I bought 6 a couple months ago.

I have only shot two nocks, But I have shot them about 300 times each and these light EVERY time. I have even forgot to turn them off multiple times, Even for hours and they are just as bright as the new ones.


They didn't change POI on my bow from regular nock to these. Very good for the price, I am going to order some more, And some if they make them for crossbows.

I made a quick visit to their website yesterday, just to see if cost has changed. I see they have other colours now, but I bought 3 green and 3 red last year to see what I preferred (red). I'll order some more once the ones I have start to fade, but am pleased with the apparent shelf life on the battery.

I went on their website a month ago or so and was ready to order but the checkout had no option about shipping to Canada ? I sent an email asking about this but they never replied and even attempted to call them but I believe the number was out of service when I called. Has anyone ordered
any of these recently and had them shipped to Canada ? The option may have been right in front of my face and I may have not noticed...
Also what's estimated shipping time to ontario ?

* I just tried their website again from my phone instead of my laptop and now see an option to ship to Canada.
