nock

Then taking up his own good stout bow and nocking an arrow with care, he shot with his very greatest skill.

If fact, most people just tie a nocking loop on their bowstring and call it good.

Is there sufficient vane clearance without having a high nocking point?

Second, use a nocking system that applies a small amount of downward pressure on the arrow to keep it firmly on the rest as you yank the string back.

During the last two seasons, I've given the string nocking loop a fair trial, but after weighing the benefits and the costs I've switched back to my old system.

The first thing I do is measure from both axles until I have my nocking point perfectly spaced between the two.

The nocking point must correlate with the rest position.

As the nocking point jumps up and down during the power stroke, it jerks the arrow hock up and down, which creates excessive and violent oscillation in the arrow.

Nock point: A nock set or nocking loop is affixed to your bowstring to precisely control where the arrow attaches.

If you hold your D-loop or nocking points, can you move them up or down?

I remember when setting up new bows meant no more than adding a stick-on rubber rest, installing a brass nocking point a bit above square, assuring both limb bolts were tightened evenly and consulting an Easton aluminum arrow chart.

Every method has strengths and weaknesses, but of all the methods I've tried, the string nocking loop is the best.
