Arrow flight advice needed

[speck1]

I have my new longbow dialed in pretty good. I still see a slight nock kick up at 4 to 5 yards down range. It straightens out after that and impact is true. I tried lowering the nock point and it did not help. Should i be concerned about this?

Do your broadheads hit with your field points at 20 yards

Try to nock it with the cock feather inwards.
Sometimes your feathers will hit the shelf.

Yes they do.

Great idea. Have not tried that yet.

One other thing you might try if you are not already doing it is to use two nocking points, one above and one below the arrow nock. I have seen this make a difference, even with 3 under shooters.

Internet diagnosis is a really hard thing most of the times!

What do your paper tears and bareshaft impacts look like? Big game...not good enough. Small game...your cool. Deer...No se.

At one point last year on my recurve I was able to group bareshafts, broadheads and fieldpoints out to 20yds but the arrow flight sucked.

Thanks Bisch. I always use double nocks. Gonna keep playing with the setup. It’s very slight. I tend to overthink things.

Did you try raising the nock point? Sometimes lowering it makes the kick worse...

Try rising the nocking point.

You may be looking at a nock low, instead of a nock high. And it could be bouncing off the bottom of the shelf and making it look as if it where a nock high.
