INITIAL BOW SETUP

Nocking Point and Nock Adjustment

Now that the initial centershot setting is

complete, you need to verify your arrow nocking

point. Install the nocking point or string loop on

the bowstring so that when an arrow is nocked it

creates a 90 degree angle to the string. Another

option is to use a process similar to the one used

to determine centershot. With an arrow in the

rest and nocked on the string, firmly hold

another arrow against the shelf of the riser as

illustrated. Look down the arrows and verify that

the arrows are parallel. In other words, the

spacing between the two arrows should be the

same along the entire length of the arrows. If not,

adjust your nocking point up or down to correct.

At this time, adjust arrow fletch position to

correspond with the arrow rest you are using.

Such adjustments are done by simply rotating or

replacing the arrow’s nock. Carefully position the

nock to provide proper fletch clearance through

the arrow rest. Your local Bear Archery dealer

can show you how to do this or can provide the

service for you. Please refer to the images on the

next page for further reference.

Install All Accessories

After your arrow rest and nocking point are

installed correctly you will need to install all other

accessories such as sights, quivers, silencers, peep

sights, stabilizers, etc. Before mounting ANY

accessories to the limbs, Refer to page 3 for

important limb information.
