    Pinched Nock ???

    I shoot a Switchback XT @ 70#, 28.5" draw, QAD Ultra Rest, Maxima 350 arrow 26" shafts, 4" Quik Spin vanes, 100 gr FT, total arrow weight around 400 gr. It seems my arrows are flying Tail high Right (fletch is up and angled to the right of the field tip) as it comes off the bow. I have moved my rest to the right, so far that I can shoot around corners, with no noticable improvements. I have a brass nock on top of my arrow with a string loop. So question is, if the string loop is too snug could that be my problem?

    I've been wondering the same about my rig too. I know Ken discourages having the nock in there but he hasn't said why.

      Real easy way to check... nock an arrow without a tip.... then draw the bow if the arrow lifts off the rest you got nock pinch...

        But will it cause my tail high right problem?

            So I tuned on my bow some more and replaced the string loop and got it pretty close to dialed in. But my arrow is still tailing off L some. My BH is hitting left of my FT. So if a nock is too tight on the string will this cause issues also. And how can I loosen up my nocks?

              I reserve the center serving to fit my nocks..
