im bare shaft tuning for the first time and am getting closer.im getting a knock down flight but good point of impact.do i need to lower my nock point?

You need to lower the nock.  Very little at a time.  Less than 1/16" at a time.  Just until the shaft levels out.  You are close.

thanks al

Don't go with what I posted.  I just had to go up on nock to get rid of tail low.  I have had to go both ways.  I would go 1/8 either way and see if I got a change and adjust from there.  I also found my release making a difference.  I am saying I don't stand by my previous post.

yeah i get you this bare shafting can be a riddle
