Abstract
A lobed projectile apparatus includes a body portion and a lobe extending radially away from a longitudinal axis of the body portion. The lobe substantially fills a gap width between two rails of a crossbow or is configured to contact an anti-dry-fire mechanism of a crossbow. The nock may be used to avoid dry fires of a crossbow by controlling an anti-dry fire mechanism and by securing a bowstring to the projectile.
