Thanks for your time.
I’ve always thought that nocking points should barely touch the arrow’s nock, without pinching. It may be in theory or I am just wrong.
Here is my problem. If I adjust both nocking points gently embracing the nock, when I load the bow the arrow disengages from string and fall to the ground. At full draw the string‘s angel brings closer the nocks and displace the arrow out a little bit but it should’t be enough to completely disengage it.
If I move the top nocking points 2mm away I solve the problem so I think it is the actual nocking point the responsable for the disengaging. But then... well bye bye theory, the nocking points are not so close as they are supposed to be.
The other solution I came up to is lowering the profile of the nocking points using a thinner thread should help (use a BCY -3D with 0.017 instead the BCY nock point tying thread of 0.020 I do) I am shooting with large limbs at 28.5” draw length so the string’s angle is not a acute one.
What my mistake is?
How have you dealed with this?
I will appreciate your suggestions.
I attach a couple of photos to illustrate my problem. One at full draw, with the theoretically right nocking points, pinching and displacing the arrow. The second pictureis with the extra slack of 2 mm that solve the problem without loading the bow.
