Nockturnal Shift Universal Green
The Nockturnal Shift Universal Green is a lighted nock system built for hunters who want reliable arrow tracking without the hassle. Unlike fixed-activation designs, the Shift features an external on/off switch paired with string-activated illumination—meaning your nock lights up the instant your arrow leaves the bow, then powers down instantly when you're ready. It's the control hunters have been asking for, wrapped in a proven platform that's earned trust in the field.
Built from durable impact-resistant polycarbonate, the Shift nock handles the punishment of release and impact while protecting a super-bright green LED. The design is waterproof and shock-proof, so wet weather and hard landings won't kill your light. With 20+ hours of lithium battery life per nock, you're not swapping power sources between every hunting trip.
The Nockturnal Shift comes in four shaft-compatible variants to fit common carbon arrow diameters. Whether your setup runs .204, .233, .244, or .246 ID shafts, there's a Shift nock with the right bushing—or no bushing for X-series arrows. Each nock weighs approximately 25 grains, so they integrate cleanly into your arrow spine calculations.
Three-pack includes everything you need to outfit a hunting rig or test the system on your personal bow. If you've relied on string-activated nocks before and wish you could just turn them off, the Shift's external switch finally delivers that feature.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which arrow shafts does the Nockturnal Shift Universal Green fit?
The Shift comes in four versions to match popular carbon arrow diameters: X for .204 ID shafts (no bushing), H for .233 ID with white bushing, S for .244 ID with gray bushing, and GT for .246 ID with black bushing. Check your arrow's specification sheet or shaft markings to confirm the right fit before ordering.
Can I turn off the light without removing the nock from my arrow?
Yes. The external on/off switch on the side of the nock lets you silence the light instantly without taking the arrow apart. This is a key difference from older string-activated-only designs—you control when the light stays on or off.

Each Nockturnal Shift nock delivers more than 20 hours of illumination on a single lithium battery, so you can hunt several outings before needing a fresh set.
Is the Nockturnal Shift waterproof?
Yes, the nock is waterproof and shock-proof, designed to handle rain, brush contact, and impact from landing or missing game.
