Default How many don't use brass nocksets?

Curious as to how many of you guys don't use a brass nock? And if you don't are you also using a loop or shooting off the string. I just installed an STS and am looking to remove all the junk I can off my string. That STS should be standard equipment on all bows, definitely worth the 3 ozs and 40 bucks!

No nocks, just a loop.

This little rubber thing that goes under the nock when you shoot off the string to avoid nock pinch.

I just went from a brass knock to tied on unwaxed floss. I have my loop, then i have 2 tied on knocks inside my loop, and i knock my arrow right between them. I love the set up i have now, alot better than the brass knock as far as i'm concerned.
