I served a string recently and have ended up with a strange nock fit issue.
It would seem that if the string is in one position I have a really nice nock fit with the arrow clicking on and falling off with a smart tap. If the string is rotated 90 degrees, however, the arrows fall off the string.
I checked the size of the serving with a vernier, and it does indeed seem to be oval; not by much - something like 0.15 - 0.2mm (hard to tell exactly on string) but it seems to be enough to make all the difference.
Has anyone ever had this? I imagine that I could crimp it round with pliers but maybe I should just reserve it? Maybe with an extra strand in the bundle so a serving slightly out of round is not so critical?
