Best way to Tie on nocking points Nail Knot for archery!

[@ingosundowner7312]

Pure genius. Been struggling with nocking points BUT no more. Thanks

[@noveske.2236]

What about the nocking points are you struggling with?

[@oleskl.6968]

Welch ein Sehnengarn wird hier verwendet.....???

[@roberttai646]

Brilliant, so simple, so elegant.

[@geraldbrunckhorst8291]

Perfect timing! This is the best knowledge I’ve gained today!

[@solidtank7957]

It's so rare to see one of these shorts that actually has a real tip

[@JimSheisty]

It's to the point that I don't know what to trust anymore 😅😅😅

[@mattjack3983]

Really? I've seen quite a few of them. I see them all the time.

[@BigT_Outdoors]

Don’t forget to mention it doesn’t cut off a tells you to go to they’re page for the full video!

[@westdesertoutlaw724]

Thanks that's best tied knock point I've seen yet

[@UT-CLANS]

Bankline works great . THX for the video.

[@nonsheep5823]

Omg iv been struggling for 2 years !!! Thanks bro

[@pheelmacababe2861]

i have to serve my string just now and this video is a really good way to show an easier way to do this thanks kramer! good lookin out bud

[@genehalteman882]

Been wondering the best way to do this for my recurve to eliminate weight (brass nock points) in the middle of the string. Awesome!

[@mr.o5501]

Keep them coming. Need more trad bow content in my feed lol

[@GCSimons]

Came out great Kramer thanks

[@bobdoodle6527]

Thank you Sir, you really are amazing in what you do.

[@mrwilliam969]

That was smart. Thank You Sir. 👍🏾🔥

[@QuentinSingvogel]

What a great and quick tip! Will definitely use that, thanks Kramer!

[@GreenEyedRogue]

That's what fishermen call a Nail Knot. I serve my nocking points with the body of an old Bic pen. The body has a hexagonal cross section. I used a vice and a backsaw to carefully remove one side --a dremel would work too. Then I gently press the pen shaft onto the bowstring and make my serving/knot, the same way as your video.

[@wayausofbounds9255]

Your shorts just popped up in my feed 👍

[@orin16]

Have you looked into doing this like whipping? Basically make a bight and lay it along the line, then wrap around that bight. When you’re done put the working end of the line through the bight. You can then pull the tail of the bight tight to pull both ends of the line under the wraps.

[@HWPcville]

That's what I was about to suggest but then saw you comment.

[@graydonhenry9960]

😮 That is awesome! Thanks

[@loaf8637]

This helped so much. Thank you!

[@joerarey8496]

Thanks for posting this video. I dont use a nail knot, but I might give it a try. I tend to like a bit of a more pronounced nock point, I double serve my knot so that it has a profile about that of a brass nock.

[@robertbushey7656]

And when your string stretchs?

[@tomcierijr.1448]

Sick and clean, my new go to..🤘

[@bobholst874]

We use a loop, then wrap one strand around string, through the loop 6 to 8 turns and pull it tight. It is a bobber stop knot. No need for the Sharpie, it makes it harder!

[@sterex9805]

just cleaned off the glued up mess of my string and tied these knots. Massively cleaner, will see how long they stay in place but super easy to tie

[@robburke8867]

Dang, never seen that before! 🍻

[@davidsammut335]

Thanks for sharing

[@revelatoryartist]

Great info

[@jbparker5466]

We fishermen call that a “bobber stopper”. Great knot.

[@glennplatvoet7111]

Good one

[@pietronegretto]

i use 2 strings, lay one where you want to wrap foming a sort of U, wrap tightly with the second one and pass the tip under the U, then pull the first string from the other end to pass the tip through the wrapping. Imo is faster

[@timapple6586]

That's an excellent method because you don't have to 'dress' the knot while snugging it tight. It also helps if you put a bit of masking tape on both the end of the loop and its tag ends to hold it in pace so you focus on the whipping thread. I also use the method in the video, but I use a 1" section of clear pen refill with 45º cuts on the ends, so you just stick the loose end down the centre then remove the tube. Anything hollow like a feather will do.

[@kevinbordeaux4831]

That is a simple and easy to tie nail knot. We us this knot in fly fishing to connect our fly line to our backing and or leaders

[@Lessonswithsenseimatt]

Love this Guy 🎯🫡

[@B.W.L.9786]

I use a straw, it works so well for nail knots.

[@GHXSTGUNNER]

That sharpie been through it son

[@David-th2ug]

It's so simple I thought it can't possibly work. But it does.

[@C_Burnz]

This is what I like to do with my bows, I started doing it with thumb draw bows because a brass nockpoint would scratch my finger then started doing it with all my bows because the brass nocks wears out gloves and tabs quicker too

[@trevormassoth2802]

Its called the Uni knot. Works for all things fishing. Slip stops, terminal knots, reel fastening. Its really the do everything knot

[@mtnphot]

Alternating overhand knots work too. The advantage is they stay where you put them.

[@Dream.big.dreams]

Looks naughty!

[@craigh8832]

That would be awesome advice.....if only I was into archery!!

[@erikbjornson6496]

Need this on all trad strings !!!

[@derfloh93]

doing it with dental floss...make a loop, wrap the floss a few times around, put the end through the loop, pull on the part of the loop, and the floss end will get pulled under the wraps...when its far enough it just breaks off clean and will stay there forever:D

[@luiscypher9844]

Finally ❤💯👍

[@musikSkool]

Historically they would place the line on top of the string, and then wrap around it while leaving a loop, then after tightening put the other end through the hoop, then pull both ends tight and pull the string that made the hoop slightly more so that where the hoop grabs the end is under, in the middle of the wrap. It is how they made tight string tool handles without any glue, held in by friction.

[@Eric-gi9kg]

Or just use a Nail Knot tool, or a stiff straw. Either way.. Great Video

[@c.m5043]

I was fiddling around with silly brass ones. Had no idea how simple this could be

[@Lessonswithsenseimatt]

1 million Views 😎

[@KevinSantistevan-e9f]

Sharpie is not necessary. Lay a loop along the string and wrap toward the loop. Put the open end of the string through the loop and pull the knot under the wraps. Can easily make it more clean.

[@danford8653]

What!!! Loop around finger pull finger out, string through loops

[@kevinmullen4352]

Wow that’s the way I make a slip bobber knot without the sharpie

[@clayboneous8]

Genius

[@TheSouthernsurvivor]

In your opinion, what is the best serving and serving size? Thanks.

[@rolandkeys8297]

The Knotles knot is a fishing knot used to present a boily on a hair rig. It is a way of tying of the line on a hook using friction only leaving a loop at the hook and an end to go to the main line. This is not a knot-less knot It looks more like a knot known as a fisherman knot used to join to lines of equal size

[@twintwo1429]

I usually take that thread and roll it up, put it in a little bow wax, then roll it up again, then thump it like a booger into the yard. Then put on a brass nock.😂

[@HendrikPlukaard]

That's so old, my grandfather used it to tie his hooks onto a fishing line.

[@chris_758]

This makes me want to start shooting arrows. What caliber are these❓😜😂😭

[@theoddtopics5562]

For those wondering... this is actually called a nail knot. Happy shooting.

[@FlyfishermanMike]

A little piece of a straw is even easier!

[@oldpapawwithastrat9384]

I wish I would have seen this method before I tied the glob of string I’m using as a notch set.

[@aaronperez9467]

Would the strands inside of paracord also work?

[@CarlSanford76]

Should the arrow be perpendicular to the bowstring?

[@frazier22303]

Dude, 👏

[@Gator-357]

Works betterif you attatch a needle to the end of the string to help get it through the loops and use either a drinking straw or a round stir stick or bamboo skewer instead of a sharpie so the knot will be easier to tighten

[@redleg1013]

Where were you four years ago when I started doing this for my kids?

[@trevormassoth2802]

Same knot works as a slip stop for slip bobbers in fishing. In case you forgot to put a pre-tied one first thing

[@paulinecornez1966]

Do you need a specific type of rope or can you take some random string ?

[@BigFlipz509]

Aka bobber stop for all the fisherman out there 😂

[@joecote6648]

That is the nail knot. I was using that knot 40 years ago.

[@salmonslayer707]

That's called a Barrel Knot

[@RiggerHippie]

Nah mate...it's actually called a Whipping Knot.

[@wegottafishdude]

Well, if it’s only super smooth and super nice, I don’t wanna cause I’m looking for really smooth really nice

[@Oregon123]

Bow hunting in oregon opens in a week

[@mardroidmk1393]

Nice, but not sure about the burning bit.😂 I'd be worried the blwstring would get singed.

[@d0nb3x]

That's why you should always approach with the flame above the string and the excess thread pointing upwards.

[@Firebutton]

Is there an efficient way of removing it aside from just carefully using a knife to cut? Thanks!

[@d0nb3x]

You only need to cut one loop, then you can easily unravel the rest. Make sure to keep the blade parallel to the string to avoid cutting the serving.

[@Firebutton]

@@d0nb3x thank you!

[@davescheer5038]

How far shoulda bow string be away from the nocking rest ? Will different size strings change the draw poundage ?

[@d0nb3x]

It's called bracing height. The amount depends on the size of your bow and, to a lesser extent, the bow geometry. Bow manufacturers usually provide guidelines specific to their risers.

[@d0nb3x]

And no, different length stings won't affect the poundage, but it does affect arrow speed a bit because with a larger bracing height the string stops moving sooner. String thickness also affects the final arrow speed, because a thicker string is heavier and moves slower.

[@davescheer5038]

@@d0nb3x I have a 60” Bear kodiak , it’s got the original string and was curious on strings as I’ve never had to purchase one before but it’s old and thought it might be good to replace it .

[@d0nb3x]

@@davescheer5038 If your string looks frayed you should definitely replace it, but otherwise it should be fine. Waxing it every couple hundred shots or so helps it last longer. I am only familiar with target bows, but Bear has a chart of string lengths for each of their bow models on their website, and your local archery shop should be able to help you source a string of the right length.

[@lukasmakarios4998]

That's the "barrel" knot used on Rosaries.

[@glennrangiuia7892]

Just a fly fishing knot. Nail knot. Used all the time in trout fishing.

[@bryanjones14]

Same thing fir a slip bobber stop for fishing .... But do iton a cut piece of drinking straw

[@RockyNitro5470]

You can use the same knot your fishing 🎣 slip bobber

[@i_did47]

what string do i need to use to do that :)

[@i_did47]

me new

[@oliviap.w.1023]

can someone explain to me? it looks like it barely protrudes i'm not sure how it could provide a real rest/stopping point for an arrow

[@DadaPoopoo]

What is serving material?

[@rsbreeze]

I would have taken a couple more wraps for more "bite".

[@PC-vx6ko]

Just so you know, a knotless knot has it’s own name that has been used for years. Its called a hitch.

[@Philbot3000]

No it's knot.

[@uptopswag8446]

What are knocking points?

[@catchulater7483]

Just loop it and pull the other end thru.
