Easy Archery Nocking Points --- (How To: Easily Tie A Nail Knot) 

You have a way of simplifying things for new archers that I absolutely love

The useless coffee plastic stir stick it the ultimate aid in tying a nail knot. Use the same technique as with the pencil but slide the end back thru the straw and pull out the straw and Bob’s your Auntie... this gives your loops a tighter profile and helps to keep the knot more manageable and looking “clean” as you cinch it down.

Swell! Crisp, to the point, no fluff, no-nonsense video. Enjoyed watching it.

I use a large needle instead of a pencil. Keep the eye of the neelde to the right and thread the end though the needle if done winding. Then pull the needle and the end is pulled to the other side.

I like to use a piece of small diameter tubing. This way I can put serving through the tubing and pull it out. It's an old fly fishing leader trick. You can strip insulated wire off to make a tube.

This was the best tutorial for this knot i have seen so far. nicely done.

I was wondering about using the nail knot, since I am a fly fisherman and have a nail knot tool with clippers built in. This now going into my archery bag. Thank you

I use a stir straw. Makes it easy to feed the line through before you more the straw out.

I love this video. This was one of the best things I ever learned. Thank you! Can you do a video on brass nock removal, pls? There is only one video on this subject and he had a special removal pliers. How would you do it with out?

This channel is appropriately named 👍

Coffee stir stick straws. Standard equipment in fishing tackle bag and quiver.

"Oh man" ,,, glad I watched this video ... Before I crimped those things ,,, on this sweet bowstring ... I got from ya ,,, interesting and exciting ... D

I already have multiple nail knot tools :)

Thanks for tip and not ever going back to brass nocks again!

Awesome!! Thanks for your wonderful videos and information you gave!! Keep the awesome videos coming!! Great job!!

Thanks Kramer

Thank you.

Man, great info. Thanks for sharing.

Algorithm :) Great video.

Out of curiosity... If you set the nock point with a square will it need to move up or down much? I've always just set mine 1/2 high using a square and never looked back... Guess I haven't paid enough attention to arrow flight. I could use a tighter group. This may just be the ticket

make my own finger tabs quiver arrows bow string and various other things if it can be made by the hand I can make it

Can you use other strings like bank line or inside strings of paracord

What happens if you do 3 loops instead of the minimum of 4 that you mentioned?

What is the thickness of the serving string that you use?

I’m called this a barber stop not for years. Find yourself a small straw with thick side walls and that’s all you need same not and you don’t have to loosen anything.

I use the brass or aluminum nock still, for two main reasons. One I can sit the arrow nock on on top of two of the nocks not needing lots of pressure to hold the arrow up or in if you do not make your thread nock thick enough. Two I Can make a more obvious in low light using feel as to where the knock point is. If I did the string method, I would get some thick over strength Fishing line from a quality brand but the lowest price line or some lower end or lighter strength but still from a quality brand just the brands lower end price fly fishing line and use that as serving line material is a bit thin and I would need to do 2-3 times on the same spot. I know a person who told me he used back in the day, serving line or thread enough to protect a spot a thin little piece of tin from a tin can lid in shape of a u nock would and more serving line to thread on top to cover up the tin he used the piece of tin as it was easier to find when he needed a nock as knocks were expensive or often harder to find in the 1950's as a kid/teen. He did this just to get a good nock point that felt like a brass nock. When I talked to him in 2000's he used a knock with serving line in this Nail type Line not big enough to fully cover the brass nock sometimes removing the inner nock stuff and putting serving line under the nock if he had some used nocks from other string he could not get open all the way and had to remove the protective stuff on the inner part of the knock. Often he forgets to get more nocks for new strings as he only gets or got 2-3 knocks at a time so has to reuse old brass/aluminum knocks from old strings.
