nock point

[Kituwa]

I use the tie on nocks points with a piece of old string material and coat with super glue.You can twist them like a nut to adjust them.

I use the adjuestable version shown by Ryan Sanpei on youtube

I really encourage you to try masking tape for your string nock.  It's so simple and effective.  Takes seconds and can last many weeks\\months of everyday shooting.  You can play with how many wraps and wrap direction get most durable result. It will surprise you how well it works. Great for tuning since it's easy to change out.

I use both brass/tie-on. Tie-ons stay put if they are done properly. Rob DiStephano has a great little "how-to" in the "how-to" section on here. I shoot 3-under,and just do a top nock. rat'

I struggled with this myself. I like the brass nock points but I could never install them worth  beans. No matter what tool I used they always looked like crap. Having them loose enough to move around would always cause the serving to spread out and they wouldn't stay put. And forget about removing them without tearing the serving....

Then I found the Tru-Fire Universal Crimping Tool.

   Crimping Tool  

Perfect nock points every time. And it has a remover that actually uncurls the nock point so well that it can be reused and you'd never know it wasn't brand new!

Kinda pricy but for a ham handed hack like myself, worth every penny!

BTW, I like the tape idea

Starting from scratch, I tie an adjustable nocking point that threads up and down the center serving.  I use serving material in the .025-.030" range, tied in a whip knot, in the same direction as the center serving with around 6 loops.  3" material makes one knot, but you need approx. 8" or so working length to pull the tag ends.  Once the final nocking point is set, a dab of superglue locks it into place.

If I already know the perfect nocking point height, I may merely tie one into place using dental floss.  But, if materials are at hand, it is still easier to whip tie an adjustable nocking point, which can be thread up and down the center serving, to ensure the nock point is exactly where it need to be prior to locking it into place.

I completely dislike crip-on brass nock points, and I prefer a single nocking point set for "Hill" style nocking over.

I use the whip knot like Daddy Bear. I use .035 Halo serving. I have used several tie on nocking points and none of them were good at adjusting until I started using the whip knot. Here is a video on how to tie it.

I tie on two, one above and below. I prefer bowstring material over serving thread because it lays nice and flat. However, I also use serving thread. Just worked one up yesterday in fact.

I trashed my brass nock locater supply back in 2005 or before.

There is a nice video at nasparchery.com showing how to tie on.  I've never had one move, in fact I can't move them if I try. I've tied on a few hundred, mostly on student archer bows.

I've used crimp on brass nocks for 45+ years with 0 problems.

[northener]

Dental floss and a dab of fletchtite. Brass nocks cut into my cordovan tabs, which I really dislike, even though I file down all sharp edges of the brass nocks.

[bucksakemmer]

I use a strand of the white inner from paracord, work great

Tie-on nock point for me1 I use tan .024 halo for serving and a black serving material for my nocking points. I get them real close cause I know my bows pretty well, but always have to move a twist or two when tuning in a new string.

Old bow strings

I use dental floss and a drop of glue spread into it when done. Holds up for several years that way. I, personally can't stand the brass nocks. Too hard to do anything with and to get off.

[Gray Buffalo]

Dental floss and a drop of glue. The brass nocks  cut my tab up.

[Charlie Lamb]

I don't have any problem finding where the nocking point needs to be. Once the right position is established I make mine permanent.
