Abstract
A pin nock assembly comprises a pin and nock. The pin includes a pin base, a pin element positioned laterally away from the pin base, and a pin collar positioned between the pin base and pin element. The pin element protrudes laterally from the pin collar along a central axis. The central axis extends from a center of the pin base through a center of the pin element. The nock includes a nock base and a string interface positioned laterally away from the nock base. The nock base defines a pin cavity complementary to and configured to receive the pin element. A base portion of the nock base is positioned around the pin cavity and is configured to abut the pin collar when the pin element is inserted into the pin cavity. The string interface is configured to contact a string of a crossbow.
