JAY, what nocks are you using? If it's uni-nocks then you could possibly try 3D versions. They have a slightly larger throat size. Definitely reserve the string with the right size serving. You should be able to hang the bow vertically with an arrow nocked, tap the string a good shot and the arrow falls off. Maybe just a tad tighter for hunting.

And the reason to have four nocksets on the string is to slow the bow down. There are better alternatives. The less junk you got on your string the better.

Jay,

Two of the knots ( the outside most) are the knots to hold the string loop onto the bowstring. The two inside knots are there to give space between the arrow nock and the string loop knots so that there is not significant string pinch issues.

PA, you nailed it:),
I also when using a string loop will tie on a serving nock( small amount of serving tied onto the string ) above the loop and then one inside the loop above the nock and one inside the loop below the nock...... I do this to keep the nock from being pinched by the loop and to keep the loop in position... although I dont use the tied on nock below my loop I personally dont find it necesarry for myself..... if the loop is pinching the nock it will lift your arrow right up off the rest.

If you sand your knocks none will be axactly the same as the others all will vary slightly, and may fly differently and I prefer total consistancy.
You will also find different nocks by different manufacturers will fit your string differntly, I find Gold tip lock nocks so tight they tear up my centerserving, where as Easton and CXL nocks seem to fit my serving perfectly, shop around to find the nock that performs best,meets your requirements, meets arrow specs and fits your string properly and if that dosent work then try to reserve your centerserving.
