I've been at this a while, and continue to have a problem with my string hitting the side of my nose.  Not such a big problem, except when I'm shooting as much as I need to.  I'm trying to get back into shooting daily and tired of the bloody patch on my sniffer!  Any ideas for a remedy, shy of an amputation?  

I assume your shooting 3 under as that is when I take the hit. My only cure was to turn my head further to the left to clear my nose. That was never comfortable and I also would forget so I am back to split finger.

canter the bow slightly away from your face, just enuff to clear your nose.

Well, when I cant the bow, my head usually cants with it.  

I have the same problem with my nock tearing my cheek up. Rod Jenkins uses some clear medical tape on his nose and after trying it at his clinic I bought some the next day. 6 months later I still have about 3/4 of the roll left and it really works wonders. You won't need it hunting (a few shots a day) but for practice (50+) it is soo helpfull.

Do like I do..get target panic so bad you can't get anywhere near full draw, that'll keep the string away from your nose, and your face, and your anchor point...sigh!

Have a friend brake it so it points to your bow arm.        or learn to tilt your head forward slightly

Turning your head just a little more left will get the snoz out of the way, as has already been pointed out.  Can also turn into the shot just a little more.  I think that's called closing the stance (Or is it opening it?) Regardless, that, too, will usually get the nose out of the way.  Will shorten your draw slightly.  

I can do this sometimes when I get my head tipped fowrward some.  Then I turn my head at anchor so I can get to full draw with my elbow. What I have to do is keep my head upright and faced forward so I get to anchor and full draw without turning the head.

Same thing was happening to me.  Then only sporadically and it wasn't until then that I realized that the only time it happened is when I was overdrawing.  Now I pull right to the corner of my mouth and it almost never happens.  When it does I know I did something wrong.  Oh, and my shooting improved greatly when I stopped trying to muscle the bow back too far.

Another thing, and this took me months to 'feel' make sure your drawing hand is relaxed.  If I pull the string back with my hand like a claw and all tensed up, I will most likely twack my nose.

Do like Rod Jenkins did in MBB III he put a bandaid on his nose to protect it from the string.

3 things in conjunction worked for me.  Turn your head more to the left, or in my case don't turn it into the arrow/string as you draw back, secondly I now have a very slight cant.  And lastly a deep hook on the string vs. fingertips.

I shoot 3 under and have a REAL beak. I anchor with my middle finger in the corner of my mouth (to make sure it is always the same I have a thin piece of rawhide knotted on that finger of the glove) as well as relaxing the hand/ fingers as I draw, that keeps me from pulling the arrow off the shelf. The V of my thumb and index finger joint rests at the back corner of my jaw and the arrow fletch touches my beak. A three point anchor that when I do it consistently works pretty well. When I mess it up......well I know where I need to go back to.

Tie on your nock and don't overdraw your bow.

Ditto with the tie on your nock point and I guessw the pre-emptive bandaid would make a lot of sense. Kind of like a nose glove.    

What Pete said, I too was overdrawing. My anchor point is the corner of my mouth. The farther I pulled back my head would turn into my drawing hand. This put my nose in the way.

I got tired of bloody flourescent nocks and serving and went back to split.
