"Real World Results"

[PastorSteveHill]

Hello gang, here is a question I want to throw out here. I'd love to hear some real world results...

If a bow is tillered for split finger and someone shoots it 3 under. How much would one have to adjust the nock to compensate?

#2 If the bow were tillered 3 under would the nocking point be lower, thereby allowing a flater tradgectory of the arrow at longer distances?

Reason I'm asking is I bought a bow that was tillered standard, but I shoot 3 under and I'm wondering if it is worth the money to have it re tillered....  Thanks in advance...

I have been shooting split finger for years and recently have been experimenting with three under. I have achieved pretty nice results without moving the nock point at all.

Steve,
I shot 3 under for several years with bows that were tillered for split.  I did own one bow that was tillered for 3 under and I honestly couldn't tell a difference.

I wouldn't spend the money to have it retillered.

I can't tell you exactly how much but I did nock a little higher when I shot 3 under.

Steve I know lots of guys&gals that shoot three under with bows that are not tillered for that all they do is raise the nock point to get good flight retillering the bow probably wont make it shoot any diffrent so why spend the money Buy a high end string and you will have spent less money and probably get a faster bow and perhaps mor quiet

Most times when ya shoot a bow tillered for split you end up with a nocking point about 1/8 or so higher for 3 under but it varies by shooter. All my bows like a high nocking point and I shoot s-plit. i spoke to Bob Morrison one time and he said he needs one too, it has something to do with how we apply pressure to the string. Shawn

I`ve shot 3 under for 40+ years and never owned a bow tillered for it. Bows are a lot like people,different ones like differant things. Some bows I`ve had needed higher nock sets and others were the same as one over. Normally for 3 under it will be 1/8" higher but then it`s really just what the bow likes.  Bob
