There is a little dimple in the alpha nock that has to be lined up with cock vane. The alpha nock can only go in reciever one way. You can install the omni in reciever any way. There is only one thing i like about the omni over the alpha nock. Time will tell if i stick with the plastic alpha nock. I know the alpha was designed for the crossbows with more of an acute angle on string. The Omni-Nock design features six micro-grooves that form three bowstring channels which eliminate the indexing problem associated with moon and capture nocks. I changed do to it being the newest technology from ten point. TenPoint’s patented Omni-Brite Nock makes other nocks obsolete when it comes to your arrow. I have been getting about the same accuracy with the alpha nock as the omni nock. The alpha is gonna be the replacement because of more nock to string contact. I believe I read that ten point was gonna stop manufacturing the omni nock. I'm getting 16 grain on the scale for plastic alpha and plastic omni. I started shooting the plastic alpha nock this year over the omni nock. I think Pin is referring to the aluminum alpha nock weight compared to the plastic alpha nock. The grooves in an Omni nock are not as deep as in a 1/2 moon nock.Ī slight modification on Barnett crossbows can easily correct this downward pressure problem on theĬrossbow that has the riser on the front of the rail-stock. Using Omni or flat nocks on a Barnett, due to this error, the bow string could go under the arrow, If the riser was built to sit a wee bit higher, this would eliminate this problem. Properly manufactured, the bow string should have little to no downward pressure on the rail-stock. Shorter, lighter arrows, the front of the arrow may lift off the rail-stock near the riser end. Over time, these grooves will move up into the carbon arrow shaft. Rear of the arrow nock (not centering) which will eventually cause wear grooves in the nock where Due to the extreme downward pressure, the bowstring presses down on the This put extreme downward pressure on the bow string serving,Ĭausing undo wear. Built with 2219 Easton aluminum, the 20' XX75 Magnum shafts are fitted with Omni-Bright 2. In the uncocked position, if you look from one cam to the other along the bow string, it humps 003 straightness, the TenPoint Magnum XX75 Omni-Brite 2.0 Lighted Aluminum Crossbow Arrows are sure to hit the mark shot after shot. The plastic arrow retainer and the brush retainer In a safe direction and give the stock a sharp wrap. Worst yet, fall out if the loaded crossbow is tilted at a downward angle. The arrow retainer or brush retainer if properly set up the arrow will not slide forward or If you look where the arrow retainer makes contact with the arrow, it is well forward of the arrow The rail-stock where the arrow lays was not wide enough.Īnother thought was the arrow retainer was putting too much pressure on the back of the arrow. The bowstring when the crossbow is cocked and loaded. Barnett states to use the 1/2 moon nock.īarnett crossbows have a manufacturing problem where the arrow nock does not center on I would not advise using these in a Barnett crossbow. If it specifies or requires a moon or capture nock, please follow its recommendation.įor more information visit advantage of an Omni nock providing it is installed correctly is if a person loaded theĪrrow with the wrong vane down, they would not get a dry fire. Check your manufacturer’s arrow specifications. The Omni-Brite 2.0 Lighted Nock System is available for the company’s entire lineup of crossbow arrows.Įngineered for TenPoint Crossbow Technoliges, Horton Crossbow Innovations, and Wicked Ridge Crossbows, the Omni-Nock and Omni-Brite 2.0 work well on other manufactures’ models with precise and consistent bowstring alignment. Even if the vane is slightly misaligned when the arrow is loaded, the Omni-Nock and Omni-Brite 2.0 will self-align the arrow as the bowstring accelerates. In addition, it prevents flat-nock “shoot-over” or “shoot-under” that can happen with the acute string angles common on today’s narrower bow assemblies. This design eliminates improper loading accidents that can occur with moon and capture-nocks. Just like TenPoint’s non-illuminated Omni-Nock, the lighted Omni-Brite 2.0’s surface features six micro-grooves that form three string-alignment channels. The battery-powered LED stick should last up to eight hours under normal circumstances and is replaceable after it loses its charge. After reinstalling the LED and Nock in the Receiver, the system is ready to shoot again. To turn it off, remove the Cap and LED Unit from the Receiver and pull the LED’s lighted tip until the light turns off. When shooting the arrow, the bowstring’s force activates the LED Unit.
