tie on nocks or brass?

[2bird]

I tie them on. Just tied these last night with serving thread.

Looks good

I have always preferred tie on nocks over brass.
They look like they will do the trick.

[Sam McMichael]

I use brass, simply because it is quick and easy.

[Caughtandhobble]

I use serving material and tie the "nail knot" because it is quick, easy and adjustable.

I tie them on because they are lighter then brass, easier IMO and I anchor close to my face and the brass tears my lips/nose up. I had been using dental floss and it worked good, but it got gummed up after a few hundred arrows...

i use brass. have all my life. never had a problem and they are easy to put on, dont move, and easy to adjust.

I used brass for many many years but got a few strings with tie ons and I really liked them so I switched.

I tie mine on. You can always find some kind of thread to use in a pinch, although I prefer to use serving material.

[Jon Stewart]

waxed dental floss.

[JJ Hernan]

I use 0.30 serving thread on mine on new strings.  After string stretch awhile, I readjust then a drop of glue.  I usually replace my string after the shooting/hunting season.  About a couple of thousand draws/pull.

[Randy Koleno]

I use one of each, brass on top, tie on the bottom.

I have always used brass, but am thinking about switching over to thread (serving).

[JamesKerr]

Thread nocks for me.

[lbshooter]

I have used all three, brass, thread, and dental floss. They all work for me.If I think I'm going to remove or change my nocking point, I use floss. I will also use floss to tighten up an arrow nock on a thin string. .

I used to use brass for ease of installation etc, but tie-on with serving material or floss has too many advantages:  wont scratch your bow when unstrung and getting moved around, won't scratch your face if you anchor close, won't scratch fingers if rare instance of shooting w/o a glove or tab, less risk of damaging serving (though must also be judicious when gluing tie-on nock points!) and my favorite part, if tied to the proper tightness they don't necessarily need to be glued and can always be adjusted up or down to fine tune quickly.  I hate fussing with nock pliers once a brass nock is in place.  A spool of serving material also lasts a long time, through many strings and the different ways to tie on a nock point are numerous and you can more or less learn/ tailor the way that works for you.

I prefer serving with a tiny drop of glue.  I used a thin smear of gorilla glue on my last one, made it wet to cure and turned my tiny tie on into a little tan ball.  Seems to work and has not come off.

I also prefer tie-on nocks with dap of glue when all is said and tuned.

[Bjorn]

I use floss and glue but all this talk about ca glue and broken strings has me worried.

Tie-on, no glue.  Wax the nock serving before installing.  It will hold just fine.
