Was looking for some ideas on push-in nocks for my 3555 GT trad arrows. Anyone shoot Easton super nocks or Bohning signature push-ins. Seems like the standard GT nock is too small I get finger pinch on the arrow shaft.
My favorite push-in nock for GT are Easton 3D Super nocks,these are different from your standard Easton Super nocks.3D Super nocks have the largest and deepest throat of the push-in nocks I've found.If your getting finger pinch,I don't think its the nock.Finger pinch I feel comes from acute string angles pushing your fingers together.Long draw,short bow?Do you shoot with a tab or glove?
Shoot a Stewart 64" Slammer with a Bateman cordovan tab. Seems a little better with the Super nocks. Are you saying the 3D Super nock is bigger?
Shot glue on Snap nocks with the glue in nock adapter but was trying to simplify nock replacement and tuning.
I like the Easton 3-D Super nock WAY better than the regular super nock.
3-D SUPER NOCK Here is what it looks like.

i shoot the s nocks and like their performance. i also shoot some aluminum arrows with nirk nocks, and even though the knocks have a lot of area to grip, they do not hold the string as well as my s nocks do. the s nocks are by far my favorite type of nock, mainly cause you buy them just about anywhere and they are priced fairly decently. but as mentioned above, i think string pinch comes from the actual angle of the string caused by extreme angles or too much tab or glove..have you tried switching up between tabs and gloves? it helped me and i realized i needed to go down a size in the glove i was wearing...i stretched the leather a little bit (it was a lil tight around the fingers) and the smaller size fixed the string pinch...maybe there is too much material there including the knock, tab/glove, and your fingers? hope this helps

Thanks guys all the info I receive is valuable as I just started this trek in trad archery 4 years ago. Think I'm gaining on it a bit but got a long way to go.
