One thing that's often overlooked is how your nock fits the string. When it fits too tight it will rob you of energy, plus make it very difficult to get good arrow flight--both of these will hinder penetration.
Any ideas on how much energy it robs' tho?? i'm curious now....
i know too much nockpinch is bad for arrow flight...my buddy drills his knocks out so theydont "pinch"the string at all...it gives me fits when i shoot one of his bows...i shoot 3 under and it makes me look like a retard when the arrow falls off the string all the time.
(im just not used to it....plus he uses a thread wrapped around his string and Dabbed with a little bit of glue for a nock set...wich isbetter suited to a split finger guy)
