         lLike Manny 3/8" or 1/4" up...................bob

Pat B:
I usually set my nock point at 1/4" above parrallel and nock my arrow on top of the nock point.  On some of the Eastern Woodland style bows I've made, I've used one of The Ferret's practices and used no nocking point at all and just go by feel. Actually, on every bow I make, I shoot them quite a few times with the tiller string and there is no nocking point on it.    Pat

NOMADIC PIRATE:
me to Pat, I can tell by the angle off my arrow, and pretty much i'm spot on

AndrewS:
I dont use a nocking point. After 50 -100 shoots on a new string you will see where you have to nock ;)

DBernier:
Don't mean to steel Bikewer's thread, but has anyone tried using a mechanical  ??? release? I did to check arrow flight by eliminating one variable. It was interesting.  :o
