HOW do you know that " two speed nocks 4" from the bottom cam" is the right place and right weight???

Consider what the average cost/hour is for auto mechanics wages in your area. Then use that when determining what he' s worth. Remember, he doesn' t have the overhead (rent, insurance, inventory, utilities), but does have the expertise.

I' m glad you found someone willing to help you.

Len,

BowTech' s manual for my bow says that two nocks (I call them speed nocks because they are placed on the string for speed) should be placed 4" from the bottom cam when the string is replaced.

I ain' t gonna go stingy on the guy. My feeling is that he hasn' t cut any corners with me, so I shouldn' t with him.

The reason I question the weight and position is that by varying the location, as well as the weight, you can sometimes hurt your speed a lot more than help you. With that in mind, you' d better be absolutely sure of the exact datum (point from which you start) and the exact type of nocks (red ones weigh more than black ones).

Len' s right and BowTech uses Red ones for the speed nocks under the shrink tube.
