I have three carbon arrows with minor cracks in the nock end. The nocks could be superglued back in. Would you use them for practice arrows or throw them away?

Throw them away. When carbon fails, it is very impressive. Unless it fails right next to your arm, then the only thing impressive is the damage to you it can create. Wow, not something I want to go through. I'll give them to WV Girl. |

Its not worth the risk to have one of those arrows break or explode on you when shooting, I wouldnt risk it!

The cost of new ones is not worth the damage they could cost you or your Bow. Speaking of your Bow Predator you may want to throw it away also and get a Hoyt.
Just tell WVgirl "See what this thing is doing to my arrows, I need a new one"

might be able to give them to someone with a shorter draw and they could cut them down from the nock end? You obviously would have to refletch. might mess up the weight distribution if forward weight tehnology arrows? Dunno, I always throw mine away if they have any cracks, not worth it to me.............
