I like two and I sand my nocks and it's a smooth release.

He taught me that at ATAR, and I am a good pupil when I respect the teacher.

Tie-on string nock is much superior to the metal squeeze nocks I used prior IMO. That's a very sure trouble free nock in Killy's photo. I use a single tie-on nock above my arrow.

I've always used one. Never liked the brass nock sets so I tie dental floss on then melt it in with a match. No way to adjust the location, but it does not move and/or crimp the string.

I use one,but in the past I've used two.
Not for any particular reason,one day I just thought I would give two a go and it worked just fine.
Then for some reason I went back to one.
Again not for any particular reason.
I do shoot 3under but I don't have any issues with arrow control ect,so that's not it for me.
Just do what works for you I guess.

Good article in current TBM about two nocks solving arrow flight problems.

Two keeps the arrows from slipping down the string,I would recomend tieing these on with piece of serving or dental floss the brass nocks tear up your shooting glove or tab.

I always use two that i tie on with seving.One advantage i see with me is i like a loose nock fit on the string and two nocks keep the arrow in place.

I would like to give two nocking points a try. Is there a pictorial/video anywhere on how to do it.

One is OK for regular shooting, but when hunting I want two, so two it is.

One brass nock point.  Easy to adjust.

I use two tie ins...
Title: Re: One or two nocking point?
Post by: LKH on February 06, 2010, 05:51:00 PM
Single tie on.

There are a lot of times when I'm trying to nock an arrow in a hurry and just don't have time to look down and get it between two.

I use two nocks. I get a better release with shooting three under.

Post by: PAPA BEAR on February 06, 2010, 05:52:00 PM
i use one brass nock because inevitably every time i used two string nocks i would have to move my nock up or down a little for some reason or another and a brass one is a lot easier to move than having to cut off two then retie.keepin it simple is my motto.but at the same time i do believe the double performs better.

I prefer one. However, I suppose I've never really given two a chance for any length of time.
Title: Re: One or two nocking point?
Post by: richbat on February 06, 2010, 08:42:00 PM
just one here,i tried 2 before but don't really see the need of 2.

One works for me. Dental floss or a few wraps of electicans tape. I find I can nock an arrow a little faster w/ just one.  Never found any advantage to using two.  Definitly don't like the metal ones.
