In this first episode of Grips Tips I demonstrate a cheap and simple way to fix loosely fitting lighted nocks, or how to install nock bushings without having to glue them in.
I need to try that. Bought some red lighted nocks but they are too loose in my broadhead bolts from China. Now the original plastic nock won't stay in the bolt and I'm not going to fire it until I know the rear of the shaft isn't going to cut the crossbow string trying to launch it.
Yeah there not cheap! Mine have the black adjuster that you screw up and down for tight fit! After having lighted knocks ,I'll never go without them again! They tell you so much at the shot expecally on video! Good tip , grip! 😉
I like this idea but I have extremely undersized lighted knocks that it is similar to running your finger around the inside of a glass they are that loose, even the factory knocks that came with the arrows are loose to the point where when the arrow is fired they pop off and stay on the string and the rest of the arrow travels down range how do I correct this?
Wow that is really loose! If you don't mind my asking, what kind of arrows do you have? I have never had nocks fit that loosely before. I would suggest looking into picking up some nock unibushings to put in back of the arrows.

Absolutely! Love seeing those lighted nocks disappear through that hide! Thanks Mr. Bell.
