All my bows are a touch different, most at around 3/8" above square.

A lot of things can dictate nock height, tiller, grip shape, shooter's grip, etc.....

This is where tuning comes in, good arrow flight will make you a better shot.  :thumbsup:
Stay sharp, Kenny.

My nock point is 1/2" on all my bows but two .
One is 5/8" and the other is 3/16" .
The one that is 3/16" just surprises me , but the archer shop said they have seen that before .

I shoot 3U and they range from 5/8" above to 3/4" above depending on the bow.

what if you get good arrow flight on multiple positions?
aim small miss small

1/2" is a good general hieght. All my bows shoot well there.

Mine are pretty much flat.  I can adjust tiller with my ILF equipment to use zero nock height.

Thought you were asking about my height. Keeps shrinking every year   :(  

Brace height stays pretty constant right around 5/8" for all my bows shooting 3 under.

Mine is a bit different for each bow I have...I shoot 3 under.  Most are very close to the 5/8" above center mark.  I have a couple of bows set up with stick on style rests and on those, my nock points are closer to 1/2".

split, 1/2, Pronghorn t/d, 7" bh

Ken Taylor

9/16" seems to work well for me. I shoot split finger.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

Keith Zimmerman

I have no idea.  Never checked it.

katman

3/8" to 5/8" depending on bow and how it is set up.

"

Fletched shafts make up for tune errors with field points but broadheads may bring them out.
shoot straight shoot often

WESTBROOK

1/8-3/16....I knock over the point.

RodL

Mine are set 1/2" above level.

Rodney

Stumpkiller

Whatever it takes for the bow.  I usually start at 3/8" nock under and work up or down.

I shoot split, and I let tuning tell me where to set my nocking point. On almost every bow I own, that point is between 5/8" and 3/4". My current goto Sarrels Blueridge longbow likes 9/16" for some reason though?

Bisch

Roy from Pa

Mine are all 3/8th above the shelf. I tiller my bows for equal limb timing and set the tiller tree up assuming that 3/8th high nocking point.
