If you swing by this weekend, let me check your nock fit too.

I also shoot split and always use two tie on nock points.

You want a little wiggle room between the nock sets so at full draw they are not pinching the nock. I was also thinking that the guys who don't advovate the dual nock set have a friction fit to there nocks because they are scared of the nock falling off the string, but that is only necassary for self nocks. On a snap on nock the snap should occur right when the arrow is put on the string and then there should be zero bite on the serving in the throat. That is it should slide freely up and down the string without the nock points to stop it. This allows the string to rotate and forgives some torque. I am a firm believer that the difference in marginal archers and good ones is not all skill, the good ones have just figured out tricks to mitigate their errors.

Doc, I hope to get out there Sunday afternoon, after the sale of the wheel bow!

I don't think it makes a difference at all if your nocks fit perfectly. But if they are a bit on the loose side shooting 3 under it's definitely a good way to go.... But....the spacing is critical so the arrow nock doesn't bind up between the two nocks at full draw.

I was walking across my alfalfa field and found a loose piece of bailing twine - the newer orange stuff.   Don't know what it is but if you separate a strand out it makes a great long lasting tie on nock. Not too bulky. It feels like poly or some kind of plastic.
