Bulbous nocks

(1/2) > >>

DC:
I've been looking at Turkish arrows with their built up bulbous nocks. They look cool but is there any advantage to them other than strength? Aerodynamics maybe?. I can't see them being necessary for, say, 50# or less. Maybe skinny, non bulbous have the advantage in aerodynamics.

PatM:
What nocks did Don Brown use?

willie:
add a little more arrow knock thickness around the string since the end of the arrows were tapered down to about 5mm?  Maybe the turk strings were fatter? pretty sure they didn't use FF, but I don't really know how thick a turkish string for a 100# + hornbow was.

darinputman:
I have often wondered if I could use the pinch grip  if nocks were a little bigger with a heavier draw weight.
