fixed myself!  anchoring under my ear and slightly cant now.  no more blood.  this is without a clicker on.  we will see if it does when i put the clicker back on.

Congratulations!  Canting sure would help.  Anchoring further back may be putting your forearm more "in-line" with the arrow - just like the "12:00/6:00" picture at the top of this forum.  Hope it continues working for you.

Are you getting your drawing arm elbow all the way back? It should be a straight line from the back of your elbow, your forearm, wrist, arrow to the bows shelf. It sounds like your elbow is out of line and as you release the string you are sending it towards your face. Try a shot or two making sure that you get that elbow back and see if that helps. Just a suggestion, but, worth a try.

sounds to me like the string is in a position where when you release it is pulling into your cheeck instead of along side it. using the two finger method may be torqueing the string into your cheek.

Rob put an excellent tutorial on tied nocks here in How To - Resources.  I would do that first to easily eliminate that issues and you will like the nocks anyway.
