What size luma nock fits the the Firebolt? I don't have any of them as of yet and don't know if I want to pay that much as I have seen some very high priced ones.

I use Easton power bolts and they are .297 and should work with the Easton Firebolts but before buying contact Lumenok to make sure.
They have a contact number or email.

Lay your bag down and stomp the hoowey out of it. It'll be good to go for a few more shots anyway.

Take a ratchet strap around the OUTSIDE EDGE of your target, Cinch it down... it will compact it pretty good... don't go crazy... play with it until you find a good combination of resistance and arrow removal. the same works for old block targets.you may be able to get away with stuffing the bag into a new burlap sack, and spray painting some new dots on it... slightly offsetting the dots so that you tear up a new spot each time. Works well.
