Title: Beman mfx question (nock point)
Post by: kevman37 on January 03, 2008, 11:12:00 AM

When bare shafting the beman mfx arrows do you find your self setting a lower nock point due to the smaller arrow dia. carbon express 150s nock at 1/2 while the bemans like 3/8 anyone have experance with this ?

Good thats what I thought. 3/8 seems about right.

You guys shoot split or 3under? I need to re-tune for my Beman MFX's too.

I shoot split ,but am thinking about changing to three under.Most people I know that switched from split to three under really improved their accuracy.I'm not shooting poorly ,but I'm not satisfied with 6/8 inch groups mixed with some 3s at 30yds and in.

I should add that that is a good day. I still have days where I can't hit my a... with both hands. I guess I 'm looking for more  consistansy that my shooting friends seem to have gained by switching to 3 under.

For some reason I end up moving my nocking point higher than norm to get best flight out of my axis arrows.jonesy
