Shooting high.

I'm shooting high with my longbow. Will lowering the nock point lower the arrow's point of impact?

No, it will change the flight characteristics of the arrow, probably in a bad way.

Decrease the gap!

Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

At full draw move the tip of the arrow lower on the target. This will increase the gap from the tip of the arrow to the center of your aim point thereby lowering your point of impact.  Or in other words just aim lower.
