An alignment tool may be used with an arrow and a nock. The alignment tool may include a tool body, a connection member, and an opening. The alignment tool and nock may be rotatable with respect to the arrow when the nock is connected to the arrow and the connection member is connected to the nock to align the nock with respect to the arrow by aligning the opening in the tool with an arrow vane with the vane visible through the opening in the tool.
