RE: String Setup
How important is nock fit to shooting accuracy? I've never noticed a great deal of difference, but maybe I don't shoot good enough to tell. <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: String Setup
ya right Vic! Mine were so loose I started pinching the nock bad! At full draw my arrow was bent like it was flying through the air! Heck they were so loose every once in awhile they would fall of the darn string every once in awhile! You talk humbling, espically when you are trying to teach someone LOL!

Chad does an great job on matching my nocks

RE: String Setup
I don't know for sure if a too loose nock will affect arrow flight, but from what I can gather a nock that is too tight will mess with your arrow--especially on a light bow. I like mine to just barely snap on to help avoid a dry-fire. A little snug at first, as it seems the serving will mash down some after a little shooting.
