I've been shooting trad. about a year and a half and learned how to makes strings from the start. I always used B50 and nylon serving and tied on the nocking point with serving material. You could always adjust them by twisting the knots up and down the serving. I recently got a new bow with astro-flight string and I don't know what the serving is. The problem I am having is that my nocking points are moving. I have been very inconsistant with my elevation lately and check my nocking points and was almost a 1/2" higher than were I set it. I was wondering if any of you guys hit your knots with a dab of glue? How many are using brass nocking points? I never seemed to have this problems with the strings I tied out of B50. I want to get some astro-flight and new serving but I don't have the funds right now. Anyway, I appreciate any feed back.

I use brass.

Brass used also.

brass.

I have used a drop of glue to hold them, it works well.

Brass digs into my tabs so I will only use tied on nocks. My friend that makes my strings hits the tied on nock with a little dab of super glue. We never have a problem removing if I want to move and they never do move while I use.

only tied on my gloves cost too much the brass tabs eat up gloves

I tie mine and when I start I tie a clove hitch first and them hand serve them tight. The clove hitch is a self tightning knot and wont slip.And I always wax them a tad and hit with a match to melt into the threads.Its just my way.Tim

These don't slip if you tie tightly.

Brass.  Worth having the proper crimper pliers, too.

I double up a brass nocking point.I use two so the first one cant slip.Both nocking points go on top of the nock.

dental floss with a dab of glue. they dont' move

I use brass crimped with the pliers made for the purpose. Have used this setup on serveral different kinds of serving, haven't had a problem with the nock moving to date.

I use a Dacron, tied-on, "ten knot knock" on my fast-flite served, D10 string and I put a drop or two of super glue on it and it holds it in one place very well. Well, actually I use one above and one below my arrow knock.

One brass nock for me.
