deerslayer06 Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Hey everyone, I have a nock on the end of an arrow not properly aligned. When I try to turn it nothing happens. Looks to be glued pretty good. What do you all do to remove a glued arrow nock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungry hunter Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Carefully split the nock with a good knife then check the nock to arrow area for damage the rest is self explaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybear Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Heat the end of the shaft to melt the glue and pull the entire nock and insert with a pair of pliers. Replace both propperly. BTW, I'm assuming your talking alluminums?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I'm assuming your talking alluminums?? This would be the method used, for removing nocks from aluminum shafts. If someone glued your nocks in carbon shafts they did a NO,NO ... but the same method would be used to remove the nock .... (HOT BOILING water is the safest way).

Tom2008 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I use walmart bags to put my knocks on my carbons. Can't believe I've never thought of that! Genious idea. Some of Kels's nocks always come loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of Kels's nocks always come loose. If I get any loose fitting nocks .. I've always relied on some good old fashion teflon tape, I also use this to keep my points from coming loose ..

JimT Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I use walmart bags to put my knocks on my carbons. You use the bag to take up the space to tighten the nock? Great idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
