How do i decide the nock size?

So I'm sure many more questions will follow, but you all have been a big help. I'm trying to get into fletching and also have some arrows i want to repair. What size nock should i use? I'm shooting a 40# takedown recurve with 28" draw length. The arrows I'm trying to repair are .244" in diameter. I'm also going to go ahead and purchase shafts and fletches and what not to make a few arrows of my own. Any tips would be appreciated.

Bonus question: the vanes on some of the arrows I'm using are tall and not so long, when it passes through the whisker biscuit its rubbing the inside of it, is that something to be concerned about?

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Are my new arrows overspined?

Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
