I have tried these nocks and they do exactly what they claim, spin your arrow faster. Anyone that wants to try or have some for their personal use I have 1dz (WHITE) that you can have - FREE OF CHARGE! I'm cleaning out the archery tackle box, getting rid of the unused and unwanted. I also have some Q.A.D. Tune-A-Nock F/S in lime green up for grabs. This is from the turbonock site: "The T-4 provides instant stability for arrows using feathers or vanes. The unique twisted nock spins the arrow as it leaves the bowstring. Works with the right helical or right offset fletching only. Fits most carbon shafts with .240 - .242 id. The T-4 will stabilize target, field, mechanical, and fixed blade hunting tips." This is from QAD's site: FASTEST NOCK ON THE PLANET FRICTION SHORT-EAR: Short ear design provides cleaner release from bowstring, improving accuracy. Low-friction string groove and lighter weight increase arrow speeds by 4'/sec on average. Flared opening allows easy guidance of arrow onto bowstring. Works best with the ULTRA-NOK, but is compatible with brass nocks and virtually any bow set-up. COMPATIBLE ARROWS: Fits Easton® Super Uni-Bushing® Carbon shafts with internal components.

PM me w/ your address and how many you want. The only thing I noticed was a slight drop possibly from string pinch upon release. You also have to glue in these nocks to prevent them from spinning inside the shaft. I used fletching glue (Bohning Platinum fletch glue) that worked great.

Pete- Did you glue your T-4's in or were the tight enough to prevent turning inside the shaft at the string?

I use fletching glue and let it dry for 24 hrs. This prevented the nock from spinning inside the arrow as it came off the string.

How's the serving holding up?

TurboNock recommends using a smaller dia. serving when using these nocks. I didn't notice any more wear but I honestly didn't shoot them that much. My biggest complaint was a noticeable drop (about 1"), even at 20 yd. This was probably caused by the extra tension placed on the string by the nock twisting. They do exactly what they say - they cause your arrow to spin more giving you better control. I suppose I could've resighted my bow and shot them for a while but it's driving tacks right now and I'd hate to mess that up. There's a lot of info on their site if you're interested in buying some but I'd be glad to give you the remainder of what I have. At least that way you're not out any money.
