where can i find some Arrow Nocks to replace the ones that my little brother lost when he shot his bow?
he is so upset because i just bought these new arrows today at bass pro shop to replace his old and worn out ones with.and he just shot 3 of them about twice and the nocks flew off and can't find them.
i been to every sporting goods store in my area and they said it's too early to have them in stock.i don't know any bow shops in my area that i can go to and buy some. i was thinking about taking these arrows back and tell get some more of a different kind or something.
any sugestions i hate to have to go back out and pay over a hundred bucks again but i don't have no other choice if i can't find some more nocks for these arrows i got before saturday.

Sounds like you were using the wrong nocks maybe? What kind of arrows are they?

Agreed, they should not just fly off. Defective unless you/he did something really stupid.
Take them back.

Call a shop or the customer service line and ask what specific nocks will work. You should have to apply a decent amount of force to pull one out.
Did they come knocked or did you buy the origionals seperate?

well i was out there with him shooting my new Cross bow and we just been shooting normal as we always done nothing different.
if i can find the nocks i can put them back on with some good adhesive where they won't fly off again.

I don't know enough about this to help you anymore. Someone like Radar or 102 may chime in.
I personally wouldn't glue in a nock, especially one that was acting wrong.

It sounds like you have the wrong nocks, but a neat little trick for loose nocks is to take a plastic grocery bag and cut a rectangle portion out of it about 1" X 3" and tightly wrap that around the nock and roll one end to where it forms a taper and then slide the nock back into the arrow and trim any plastic that comes out. This will work has a permament fix in most cases.

I also shoot the Carbon Max2 arrows and I have never had that problem. Take them to Bass Pro and tell them you want your knocks replaced. They have plenty of knocks in stock.
