Bare shaft nock high
«

So I was bare shafting the other day just playing with point weight mainly but I've always had a nock high reading both on paper tune and bare shafting.I couldn't be happier with my groups though as the are pretty consistent about two inches to the left at 20 yards and nearly identical vertically .I used a home made sight for that I must admit.I'm just curious mostly.I've moved nock point up and down but it seems to not help I'm using a piece of leather for the rest but I wouldn't think that mattered and I ve changed brace height between 7-1/2to 7-3/4 on a 60 inch bow don't really like the feel of it after that but I read that might help.any input is appreciated. Have a great day.

I use 2 nock points because of that. I shoot 3 under and if I don't I get nock high also. 1 over and 1 under might fix it.

Chasing nock position when bare shaftin can drive you crazy, nock high especially is very common. Focus point impact tuning would be my suggestion. If you are right handed sounds like you still may be a hair stiff, most prefer to bare shaft a hair weak.

Braveheart has it right. Point of impact is far more useful than watching bare arrow flight.

I have the same issue. I surrendered. Point impact is perfect. Good enough for me. I was driving myself crazy trying to get perfect arrow flight.

It is probably the way the bow limbs are tillered.
