Horn Nocks
« on: March 07, 2010, 01:13:18 AM »
Any one got some close up pictures of some horn nocks that they could post on here so I can get a good look at them? Has anyone tried to make bone nocks before and if so could you post some pictures of them as well? Thanks

I've made some from antler that worked great, don't think I have any pics, though. I have a bag of those horn nocks from Peter Cua somewhere but haven't used them yet.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

 I quit using horn nocks from water buffalo. I had too many break on me. I think antler is a lot stronger.

Them are some nice nocks you got there Mechslasher, how do you shape the end of the nocks and arrows to join the two together?
