Have had inconsistent grouping with my long bow. Read up and YouTubed about nock to serving fit. Decided my string/nock fit was too tight. Maybe not a lot, but still too tight.
3Rivers sent me a BearPaw serving tool and a selection of Halo serving material. Using my dial micrometers and a few experiments I figured to try .021" Halo. And...Waw Lah!
Took me a while. Getting that first few loops is a bit tricky, but finally got it done.
Now I have a nice soft click instead of the loud hard click. And the groups at 20-yards shrank from a frustrating 6" shotgun pattern to much more satifsying 3" group when I do my part.
I did not think nock fit was that important. But there it is!
