I saw these at the Deer and Turkey Expo and the guy talked a pretty good game. They put a lot of spin on the arrow from a spiral nock and fins really push the air. Basically it's like rifling your arrow. I was skeptical and the guy sent one to try. I bought a dozen and played around with them last night and WOW! They do work!

Quiter than my feathers and dead on accurate. I broke 2 nocks at 22 yards and quit till I get to the longer range after that.

You need a fallaway or a bisquit becasuse the fins are hard plastic. But it's nice....if the fins get screwed up you just pop it off like a regular nock and pop another back on! No more fletch glue, jigs, feathers....these fit in my hunting pouch!

Thought you guys might be interested in the idea.

Have you tried them with broad heads yet? If so what kind?

Sounds like a good product. Did you try the Deadx or the Hunters?

Have yet to try them with broadheads. That will be the deciding factor on whether they stay or go for me. I'll shoot a few weeks with the target tips and try the broadheads after that. I will try them with a Thunderhead, Cabela's lazer pro Mags and Steelforce (all 125) when I do and see what hits best. I'd really like the Steelforce to be the one but the other 2 are good heads as well.

I gut the Hunters as they have a larger airfoil. I shot them today indoor 20 yard on Cabela's camo stalker shafts and CSX 4560. The 4560's are underspined for my rig @ #70 with very aggressive cams but the spin negates that to a degree. They hit where I aimed...I just didn't always aim that well:D

I then tried them on my XX78 2512 and they flew like Poo. Even with the larger airfoil on the hunters it wasn't enough to stabilize the fatter shaft with a 125 tip. Porpoising the whole way. They shot exceptionally well on the Cabela's shafts though. Enough to where I ordered 2 more dozen to play around with.

I'll be at the 3D @ Canvasback Club in Monroe on May 4th if anyone wants to give them a try. It's not to far into MI. and I think Cariboudreamer2 was asking about MI 3d's
