What can I put on arrows to help me find them in the woods in low light situations after I have shot them. Any kind of reflective tape ?
 
You can use reflective wraps, tapes or lighted nocks...really your only choices. I prefer lighted nocks because of the feedback it gives me during the shot at the point of impact and I can find my arrow if it's not sticking up from the ground.
 
I use white reflective tape you can get at walmart. I just cut off a small piece and wrap it around just below the nock. I also put a couple of pieces on my bow. I shot a doe once and did not get pass through and found the deer because of the reflective tape on the arrow.
 
Lighted nicks work great. I have used several types.
Remember to take a few practice shots before heading out because some of them cause different flight.

I do have one problem with lighted nocks though, On more than one occasion, I have had other deer spook away from lighted nocks that were stuck in the ground after a shot pass through
 
I like the after burners, the come with two practice nocks. These nocks burn great, shot a deer tuesday in the rain. Would not have found my arrow if not for the lighted nock. I havent noticed any major difference out to 30 yrds as far as the weight goes.
