    I have some Easton St Axis 400 Arrows. I was shooting them with finger styles from a 45 LB samick journey. On one of the arrows the orange nock came out upon release. My question is when I get the chance to buy new arrow nocks will it make any difference what nocks I get as long as they fit the arrows? They're slightly rounded off rather than the nocks you might see on a carbon/aluminum arrow that seems to be a little bit longer. I only ask because I remember seeing some arrow by Gold Tip Arrows at a store, I think, that said the nocks were specially designed for a d-loop and release. If my memory serves me right the nocks on these easton arrows are very similar. Thank you and Happy shooting! :bow:

    Shoot the same arrows. May I ask why you want new nocks?

    I don't want new nocks on the arrows. I have one arrow that lost a nock, so I can't shoot that arrow anymore. I just want to get a pack of nocks to use as spares. So I am just wondering if there will be any difference in arrow flight if I can't find the same thing locally or else where online.

    I would just get more of the same Easton X-nock. You can get them in different colors. I like the white, I can see them easier. Easton makes different nocks for different shafts.

    X2 on what whitetail said. Why get another type of nock when you already know how these fly
