Replacing nock tips

[ppofandt]

Heyas.

I was given an "Indian" fibreglass bow today - almost certainly this one or very similar.

However it only has one string nock and even that one looks like it's on its way out.

I know this is hardly the ideal place to ask, the bow in hand being far from trad, but Archery-forum has been down for ages. And I know this place is frequented by quality craftsmen.

So
Anyone have any idea how to replace the missing tips?

Can I get replacement tips somewhere?
Or should I just glue an addition layer onto the back and shape it manually as you would if crafting a bow from scratch? Phenolic, glass or timber overlay for instance.

From what I can see you could just file some string grooves into the limbs as they are but if you want it to look better and perhaps help keep the string loops more rounded you could glue on some tip overlays made from wood, glass etc.

That would be for the 60" Indian F/Glass recurve.
Suggest you contact Abbey Archery in Brisbane -may have some for sale.
