Love the information. It's great to have you uploading regularly

You seem to be such a wholesome and likeable guy. I adore your craftsmanship. One day I´ll be able to afford a thunderchild. Looking forward to it. Greetings from germany.

I would just like to say Big Jim’s Bows are some of the most Beautiful Bows in the World ! I’m going to save up to get a two piece someday, his are just Great !

Jim, I really like how clearly you explain why you do things. Also you do not presume we are all 20 years old with perfect eyesight. Thanks.

I can't believe the difference in my arrow fight after adding the 2nd nock. Immediate results. Frustration over!!! Everything you described was spot on. Good video, glad I happened on it

Thank you so much Big Jim for sharing this information. I for one, didn't know most of what you talked about until now. Thank you.

Great job BigJim. Good looking bow with a good looking string!

some great advice and tips thank you. I recently was persuaded by an Archer friend to set my nock slightly lower . This week I noticed that some of my arrows had tattered edges and there was a new wear mark on the edge of my shelf .I also noticed that I had an occasional porpoising arrow flight too . Now , thanks to your advice I know why , so I'll readjust my nock point up again and retest .

Thanks, Big Jim! I'm brand new to the idea of tuning, so I really appreciate you going over some of the signs to look for and what they mean.

Thanks Jim that helps a lot I’m loving the TC !

Great to see some new videos from you very informative thank you

I set a second knot point like you said cause I'm a 3 under sheer It improved my groups tremendously thanks very much

Good tips! I’ve been shooting 3 under with a single nock point and will now be adding a second point!

Big Jim, thanks for this video! I've watched a couple of hundred archery videos, and this is the first that has covered this part of a specific topic. I thought my nock was low. And lately I see the outside of the plate is wearing. I never grasped one to be the cause of the other. Now I can get it tuned (I'm still a novice) and get back on track. Thanks. BTW, I cant wait till you tell me the time has come to build my bow!

Very helpful! Thank you Big Jim

Great advice. I lowered mine thinking it needed to be, but could not get perfect flight. After noticing wear on the outside of my rest, I moved it up to 3/4” ( 3 under) and just like that! Perfect arrow flight! Thanks

Man when that dog walked across the range I thought you had a moving bear target

Dude. I just spent the last 2 hours trying to find my nock height and had to give up for the night. Had my bottom knock point way low so I didn't have to adjust them both every time 🤦 Thanks for the tip, I'll try again tomorrow adjusting both the upper and lower nock points together

Thanks Big Jim for the information it looks like I’ve got some tuning issues

I like this series of videos

Hey Big Jim. I am loving the recent uploads. Can you do a video on shot sequence, anchoring and form. I really like your practical, common sense approach.

Great explanation!

Awesome thanks for the tips. I’ve not seen a rubber nock or stopper

Great information thank you!

Thank you.

Thanks

I am neither a split finger or a three under shooter. I use two fingers. Right handed, i place my index finger above the arrow and my middle finger under my arrow.

Will you consider doing video on grips on your bows, how to grip, types etc

sure wish i could get my hands on a thunderchild

I never thought about adding another knock point. I do shoot 3 under but I have noticed my fletchings are getting torn up over time.

It’s true. My bareshafts fly like lazers but I get riser contact

I liked what you said about the tattered feathers due to the fact that they are hitting the shelf, and really shouldn't. You said that they should clear the bow, and I agree with you 100%. Having said that, would you agree that you can shoot vanes off the shelf? That's all I use, I shoot split finger and of course set my nocking point high which really takes any bow/ vane contact out of the equation. Just wondering if you agree or not. Everyone tells me no, you have to use feathers, but I use vanes and have no problems with them at all. Just my worthless two cents ... anyway God bless you, and thanks for your videos!

So if my feathers are tattering, should I raise my nock height? I always enjoy your vids👍👍👍

Great info for 3 under shooters. Jim, where did you get the rubber bumper that is used as the bottom nock?

Jim can you show us how you tie your nock set nock point some time? Thanks

Does it matter if it is a longbow or recurve?

Hi Big Jim! I have just started with 3 fingers under, and was told to rise the string nock slightly. I really tested it for days, and the final result, was that I had to lower the string nock, and increase the brace height a full turn. I found it quite strange, but it works very good. One thing that needs to mention is, I also rise my anchor from corner of my mouth to my Cheekbone, which make me get the arrow closer to my eye, any comments on this?

Jim do i need two nock points when shooting split finger?

Jim, is that an arrow holder on your bow, if so how does it attach? Is it made of leather? Thanks

Can you get the bighorn with recurve and longbow style limbs

Thanks for the information. What is your opinion of using Nitro Buttons instead of nock points?

Hi Jim, I have a question: For those recerve bows you made, what was the width of their limbs? Please let me known. Thank you very much.

Thanks for sharing you’re insight again Jim. You mentioned the limbs returning at different rates effectively changing tiller by moving hand position. From a bow making perspective can you recommend how to tell if it is not tillered correctly? If it is way out it’s pretty obvious but I’ve found fine tuning difficult. I’ve made a few bows (thanks largely to your videos) and love the process of refining my perfect bow. Struggling a bit with fine tuning tiller though. I’ve been making the lower limb around 10 percent more draw weight than top which gets the dynamic tiller close to equal but as one limb is stronger than the other is it going to return faster and create imbalance? Any suggestions welcome and a massive thank you for sharing your expertise previously. Absolute legend!
