The nocked position is important for archers because it allows the arrow to be held securely in place and ready to shoot. This position is also called “nocking” an arrow. The process of drawing a bowstring back so that it creates enough tension for release can take time, and this motion can cause the un-nocked arrow to fall out or move around. If you are walking around with arrows in your quiver without having them secured into the nocked position, then they will not be as accurate when you try to shoot them from your bow. Archers should always secure their arrows into the nocked position before leaving wherever they were practicing shooting their arrows so that they have a more stable shot.
