Evening Gentlemen,
I have some carbons with extremely tight nocks. Anyone know of a proven way to loosen em up?

THanks in Advance!

The wifes/girlfriends fingernail  emery board.  You just have to be careful to not over do it, doesn't take much.

stick them in hot water for a few seconds. From the hot water, stick them on your string..

I will slid a thin strip of metal into the slot and work it back and forth to widen the opening. If I get it to wide I just pinch it back alittle tighter with my fingers or in between my teeth. Holding them in hot water a few seconds makes it easier.

Put new, smaller serving on your string.

Thanks for all the input. ended up finding some nail files and it seemed to do the trick.

I had already tried the boiling water and putting them on the string but for me it seemed not to make a noticeable difference.

THANKS!!
