Are you suppost to have your knock point a little hight or do you want your arrow to set level?

if you are shooting the 5575 like it says under your name start 1/2" above center- then shoot and adjust according to tilt of back of arrows up or down. Adjust knock in opposite - if tilted up, move nock down and vice-versa until arrow shaft shoots level.

go shoot

DM -

Set the ARROW between 1/8 "and 1/4" above perpendicular and start tuning. That will tell you which way to move it.

Start 1/2 and you will probably end up moving it up a smidge.

Most of mine end up at 5/8ths or more, go figure.

I set mine just above level "by eye" and then move it according to the arrow flight I'm seeing and also based on how they look after they've hit the target.
I shoot 3 under and I usualy end up with the nock quite high.
I don't measure nock hight at all,it's all done by eye alone.

So I guess somewhere between 1/8 and 5/8 - there is your range:rolleyes:

Simple trick is to use thin masking tape to make a temp nock, and start 1/8" and keep moving it up till the arrow tunes right, the tape is a lot easier to move/remove than the standard nocks!
