Title: need non-tapered/parallel nocks
Post by: JEB on March 06, 2014, 11:39:05 am

I need 18 non-tapered/parallel nocks for kids arrows.  These type glue over the shaft.

They need to be 1/4" in size.

Just make self nocks. As far as I'm concerned they are way more reliable than plastic nocks.

These are the old hollow fiberglass arrows that you could by at K-Mart.  I guess if I can't find any glue on nocks I could plug the hole and make self nocks.

These are going to be used for kids to use that don't have archery equipment at our Michigan Traditional Hunter shoot this summer.

And we usually give the kids bows and the arrows that don't have any so I really want them right.

Jon:  What diameter are the shafts?  I have some non-tapered that might work.

Matt, these are 1/4" shafts.

FTY if you make contact with Art A. let him know we made some good money for the wounded Warrior Camp with the bow  he donated. A letter to Art is forthcoming

Jon:  PM me your address.  I'll send a couple dozen to you.  I'm certain they're what you need. 
Great on the Wounded Warrior donation.  He'll be pleased.  I'm sure a good time was had by all at the banquet.  Wished I coulda been there.
