nice set up jack. good to hear of the accuracy from arrows. did you have to add any extra weight to the shafts  to get the good accuracy, or just plain with the field point?

i still am hopeful that parker would get the capture nocks lined up for all arrow shaft brands and sizes. start with the most popular carbon brands and sizes, like gold tip and carbon express. then do the easton XX75  aluminum 2219 and 2216  for starters. i really would like to see this happening asap for the crossbow arrows. but until then, firenock will get all my attention.

we need these type nocks on all our arrows folks. it is just a no brainer to me. the nocks go on with a good grip/snap and will stay until the time comes to let it go. i would like see someone step up and really get this done. people are using them and wanting more, so why not. i am sure it is just someone starting the wheels of motion. we all know that this is just a matter of money and time. i wished i owned the tools and necessities to do it myself. the arrows have to have  nocks sooooooo. not trying to sound like a jerk, but seems like the crossbowmen always get the waiting game played out to them from the manufactures and i am tired of it right now.

I just used the arrows as they came.  These Red Hots with 100 gr. tips weigh 413 grains on my scale. The speed of the Red Hots is somewhat slower than the other arrows.  I have heard good things before about them but never really tried them out.  The literature says they have a 51 grain Hevi-Hit insert in them.  They have 2.1'' Fusion vanes and capture nocks.  Really good downrange grouping.  I haven't tried them with broadheads as yet, but I'll get to it soon.

sounds great jack, the broadheads will tell more of a story. but i think you have the right combo. when you get groupings like that at those distances, then things are coming together well. thanks
