Title: Nock Height Question
Post by: bkbk12 on August 13, 2010, 09:24:00 AM

Just wondering I switched to a skinny string and my arrows were kicking bad so I started messing with my nocking point I shoot 3 under with a high anchor shooting an ACS 49# and I had to move my nock to 7/8" to get them to fly like darts again any else ever have that happen also my standard 12-14 strand string is set at 5/8 and shoots great. I guess it does not matter just seemed kind of weird.

Are your nocks to loose on the string? I had to build up my serving when I switched to a skinny string. Just a thought.

I need to shoot my ACS at 3/4 " high. Also 3 under and skinny string. Randy

I shot my acs at almost 7/8's.  THen I went to one above and one below - about 3/8's.  Ken Beck's advise.

My son shoots 3 under now-ACS CX-he raised his nock point too.
I shoot my CX's split finger and nock is at about1/2" .

martin hunter 55# went from 1/2" above to 3/4" above w/skinny string to straighten out arrow flight

7/8 is about where all my bows end up on most any string I try and I shoot 3 under , I think you will be ok with that .
