Guys, I'm shooting a skinny carbon arrow/ Axis shaft.

My nock point is a little below 1/2 ''...  Never had this low of a nock before, but the arrow seems to fly great here...

What is the lowest nock you've ever had on a bow..

I shoot 3 under also!

Weird...
Blessings,
Steve

That's not at all uncommon for me, and I shoot three under with skinny carbon arrows.

I use 3/8" on most of my bows. Spit finger.

Working on tuning a new bow right now that seems to want about 5/16,

No problem with 1/2"

Steve,  Mine were all 5/8ths also until a recent bare shaft tuning session when it became obvious that it wanted to be 7/16ths instead.  They fly better now than they ever had and I thought they were good before  :rolleyes:

I bare shaft tested some Easton ACC Pro Hunter 300 shafts and they liked 1/2 " also. I shot 3 under and always started at 5/8 - 3/4.

Depends on what the bow likes. My ILf set-ups all have fairly low nocking points 1/2" or so. My other bows all are at least 5/8ths. Shawn
