Sure you can, but sometimes they can foul the nock, or even the string.  I'm sure you've got some dental floss in the house--might just use it.

I use two brass nocks and haven't had any problems.  Adding the second nock tightened up my groups considerably while shooting 3-under.  My tab has a nice groove in it where I index it against the lower nock for every shot as well.

Decided to give it a try and it did indeed improve my groups substantially. I will now tie on 2 nock points from now on. Thanks so much for the video. I believe it does make a substantial difference.

Not required but reccomend it. on longer length bow your arrow can side down while moving forward.
