Best Bolts and Arrows for a TenPoint Crossbow

What makes a bolt right for your TenPoint
Three things have to match the bow: overall length, total grain weight and nock type. TenPoint's current forward-draw bows are built around a 20-inch carbon arrow such as the Pro Elite 400, and the nock is the safety-critical part - an arrow that does not seat against the string is how a dry-fire happens. Buying the arrow line TenPoint tunes the bow around is the safe default.
Lighted vs non-lighted
Lighted nocks make it far easier to see the hit and recover the arrow, at a small cost per arrow and a little weight. Many hunters run a mix: practise on non-lighted, hunt with lighted. Whatever you choose, keep the total arrow weight consistent so your zero holds - see the sight-in guide.
