Has anyone experienced the "keyhole" type nock (Cartel Triple, Beiter etc.) NOT using a D-Loop or a bottom nock set ?
I worry about the amount of "slide" downwards on release. I use G nocks on Cartel Triples for the reason of no keyhole & that snug fit when fully nocked.

have you tried tying a soft nock on the string instead of using a brass one underneath.
are you shooting fingers or release?

I haven't been using a bottom nock set at all, as there is no need with a rope release aid & G-Nocks, but these tight snap on then open up to allow the arrow to have "play" worries me with the Cartel & Beiter nocks.
I am considering a bottom "tie on" simply to prevent this occuring.
The G nocks are ideal for compound rope releases, but this machining down to fit Triples is dodgey !

you could try an eliminater button, or have 2 tie in nock points then attach the release under the bottom one
