    Ok. Thanks triebs. With that info, I might go with red if I need to return them if they don't fit. I appreciate it. So with these...do you not nock the arrow fully until you see the deer? I have never used them and noticed that they activate by the string and nock fully engaged. Just curious. I will watch the videos for them later. Thanks.

    Sorry I'm late to the party. Knock your arrows the way there supposed to be!!! Just don't over knock them if you get what I mean. The string will push the pin down which will turn the light on. Nocturnals are the best lighted knocks I've found. Been using them for 4 years and still have the original knocks with original batteries!!! Your gonna like the knocks. I use green myself!

    Same here.. it's crucial to have the correct ones.. i bot my first ones and didnt realize what the letters where for.. thot they meant brightness... had fits.. would not shoot right until i ujusted my sight specially for that nock.. so i bought new arrows and new nockturnals that matched and havnt had any issues yet

    I've noticed my green isn't as bright at high noon but it's still visible to me. I did not like the pink color. My eyes just could not pick it up very well.

    Is anyone good at researching stuff? I purchased the green nockturnals with letter S. I made it home and looked at my current original knocks for the letter, and there is none. The arrows I have are the carbon express mayhem hunter 350. Please let me know if you find anything out before I just open up the package to find out myself. Lol. Thanks!
