Nock point tuning is one way you can get your bow and body to work as one by finding the best position for your d-loop to give you the steadiest result.
I start with the d-loop at square and then move it upwards 1/16" at a time until I find where the aiming is best... the thing to remember though is that each adjustment of the d-loop position will put the wheel timing out a fraction, so you need to balance those out each time.
How does it work? well, by raising or lowering the nock point, you are very slightly changing the bow grip angle which transfers to a different pressure point on your bow hand and that helps compensate for the bows physical weight or riser design.
Have fun playing

how do you tune your nocking point height from the arrow rest? do you leave that at level or do you move it up 1/16th as well? or do you then retune for bullet holes?
ReplyDeleteFinding where everything sits still is the first step, once I have found where aiming is best I then tune the rest to suit the nock point position
ReplyDeletejust curious, how high do you normally end up above square( assuming square is the button hole)? do you set your tiller even before you start? do you play with that at all or just leave it static.
ReplyDeleteI have written about tiller tuning in another post, as for the d-loop position... is it sitting 9mm above square (button hole center)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info :)
