is this nock point too high?
« on: August 18, 2007, 09:14:00 PM »
i am not sure which measurement would be called my nock point, but i will try to describe this so that it makes sense...
i use two tied on nocks, the bottom nock measures 15/16" from square, this is basically the measurement from square to the bottom of my arrows nock.  the top nock measures 1 1/8" from square and this is where the top of my arrow nock is.  there is room for a small amount of play onthe string for the arrow's nock to wiggle.  
the reason why i ask this is because i shot my broadheads today and they were going a few inches high of my field points at 20 yards, so i moved it up an 1/8" for both measurements and things are great, bh's bare shafts and fletched shafts all hitting with each other where i am looking.  
so i have two questions: 1) which is my actual "nock point" measurement?  2)  is this too high for my arrows nock to be?  it sure looks funny.  
thanks

if broadheads fly good stay with it. i had to move my nock up a lot as well and it looked funny to me too. just as long as it works.
