Tie on STRING NOCKS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2020
- This week, Clay Hayes shows how to tie two different bow string nocks. One is adjustable, allowing for the nock point to be moved up and down to achieve good arrow flight. The other is fixed. These tie on string nocks will work for any traditional bow, longbow, recurve, or selfbow.

I got to give you credit on that first one! You sure made that look hard! I enjoyed the last knot much better! 😂
Wow, that's awesome. I've seen other videos from target shoots and seemed to work but it took some time... The method for a fixed nock you just showed is so much quicker! Also with possibly easier to do in the field. Thanks for another great video. I feel myself literaly improving my owe skills because of the videos you put out... Just awesome
Tie ins are the way to go. Best vid about this process.
Got my bow today and this video got my nocks sorted with pink 30lb fishing braid - looks OK.
i have recently got the courage to upload a video of myself shooting a round of arrows in hopes of getting some constructive criticism, or any possible tips or pointers. i have never even shot a bow until last december and went straight with a recurve. your videos along with the other great content creators have been so helpful getting to me where i am today. if you get a chance to possibly watch it. it is short and i just shoot 9 arrows but anything would be so awesome... regardless thank you so much for the awesome free content you put out!!
Brilliant tutorial, thanks for explaining so well in a way I can follow 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Hey man, I'm a newb bow owner and shooter and this helped me a lot. My bow did not come with the nock, and (withy the help of your video) I was able to use a sliver of butcher's twine to tie up a temporary nock to get me started. Thanks!!
Much prettier than the ugly nocks I was tying before. Thanks!
Pretty.much if u can tie a bead stop on a bobber,you can do this.
Thanks for the vids, Clay. You've taught me alot,a lot, rekindled the flame for traditional bows that I had as a kid.
Good to hear!
Hey Clay, I have watched your videos for a while now and followed you during your time on alone. I really enjoy the skills that you share along with the love and admiration of the outdoors. I am a beginner in archery ( everyone starts somewhere) although my job is a deckhand with Canadian Coast Guard. the second method you show was a common whipping ( which you probably already knew) we use quite a bit to finish of splicing rope. I just thought that was really neat and never expected it to be used for both rope work in the marine industry and archery. Anyways keep em coming and thanks for all the tips! Cheers
Thanks Mathew
i do it different but I like your way. I'll be giving it a try. Thanks, Clay!
you are good at it and your videos are useful
I have been trying this for like 50 times now. Result is always a mess. No idea what you are doing exactly. Can you do a version with ropes so one can see what you are actually doing?
I was just searching for this information. Thanks Clay!
Good stuff, I’ll try both!
Best method I've seen! Thanks!
Absolutely
Thanks for the video I like the first one you tied gonna give it a try
How do you remove them without cutting the bow string?
Giving both of those a try.
You'd think I could remember this! Noooo. I hate getting old!!!
Way to go Clay ,,, got nocks covered ... D
great work as usual
Cool, I just learned a new method after 50 years of bowhunting. Thanks . >>>>---------->
Quick and nice! Very helpfull and thanks for sharing
Take care MHW
I enjoy watching your videos. I use the second method you showed, but use dental-floss instead of the type of string you used. You explained both methods very well.
Very good, thank you !
Love your vids.. this one left me clueless... would be easier done with anchor line and broom stick.. I. Gonna give it hell trying..
Great tutorial as always
Great video.Thanks
GM Clay; Question: My serving material is Mono type string. It looks as if you use a braided type material like in the bow string itself to tie the nock points. It makes sense to me that the nock point string material should be braided not the mono type material as in string serving. Are my observations correct?
Would've been easier if you could somehow film this from your angle > so everything is not back to front ! But your right after a few times it comes easy ........anyway much appreciate it Clay .
Cheers Clay 👍
Where do I buy the line used to make the knocks?

Thanks great video!
thanks
I'll give this a go!. It's different to how I do mine, so this should be interesting to try! Nice one 👍🇬🇧
Well, this was rather a bitch at first. For one, coating the string w/beeswax helped a lot- then found I couldn't move the non-adjustable version unless I put a sliver of wood under the string, even untightened. But then it worked. 🔄👌
This will be on my next string. Hope to save my nose some lol.
What about using rabbit snare wire. It is soft and highly bendable. Doesnt rust ??
Interesting
thanks for the video, very informative and I love the looks of that bow is it yew?
It is. First yew bow I ever made many years ago.
I like that method. Thanks! Is there any significant advantage of using one over the other?
the thing is to deside yourself and not ask
*It's been 2 minutes up, and 3 likes already. **_w00t!_*
So at what angle should the arrow be?
So tie on the adjustable for tuning then switch to a fixed or is there a way to set the adjustable in place so it won't move?
A drop of superglue will fix it.
I've tried to tie an adjustable nock without success several times. I haven't tried this way. Thanks.
Question, do you use 2 nocks on all your strings? Eddie
Only if the nock is a little loose on the serving.
What kind of string?
What is the string used here?
Halo
Do you tie all your nocks? Or do you use those metall ones two?
I tie them all.
@@clayhayeshunter okay, one follow up, do you tie under and over the nock? Or normally solely over?
Both
@@clayhayeshunter could you talk about the difference between the two and the why? And maybe about the height you yould recommend? I would really appreciate it, I shoot both a traditional osage bow and a laminated longbow, and I don't know how the nock point influences Arrow flight and how I should adjust with non optimal flight...
Isnt the first knot a constrictor knot?
where do you learn all of this knowledge 🤔
Lots of time in the woods
I tried this but when lacing the one end through, it automatically made an overhand knot. I think it just depends on the exact orientation of the ends inside the loops. :)
Probably so
Suprise
🙏🏽
Hi Clay, what is the name of the tool you used to set the height of the knock point?
Bow square
@@clayhayeshunter thanks a lot !
@@clayhayeshunter where do I buy the line at?
I use honey on my bow strings and a bit of spit
Then see what it does paper tuning. Gonna get that big ole RIP because the yor essentially "hotrodding" the front if your arrow. Meaning it's not squared up any more
You will need to do this video again. It is a bit of a mess.
I think you meant “tie-on string nocks”, with the hyphen. Otherwise you are referring to a tie... on the string nocks.
Thanks Clay. Great vid, but you have Biden ads interrupting it.
Can’t control that stuff🤷♂️
