self nock ?

(1/5) > >>

keekeerun:
how deep do you guys make your self nocks.  I just made one in my multiflora rose shoot about 5/16 inches deep it fits the string nice, I figured any deeper and the chances of spliting are greater. What you all think?  Oh i did wrap it with sinew

Strongbow88:
I make mine 3/8 deep some people go as far as 1/2

keekeerun:
thanks, I'll go a tad bit deeper

Sparrow:
Long as it grips the string,I reackon it is deep enough.I just measured mine.3/8 inch deep (Must be about right) I do make them where they grip the string though,just like the plastic nocks.  Frank

david w.:
i dont make mine very deep just as long as it stays on the string and i use a bandsaw to cut mine >:D  i used to do it more primitive but the bandsaw is so much easier
