Bow Nok/Loop?

Wats, I used to have my old bow set up like you do. Just clip my release on the string below the arrow under the rubber and knock. Did I have a problem??? Perhaps but did not know any better at the time. On my new bow, I have a loop and would never go back. Like mentioned earlier and it is not hard to set this up right, it is dead nuts accurate, with the release right behind the arrow, without pinching the arrow and putting some toruque on the arrow (like with the release clipped on the string). I have no data behind it, but I know it does help you to become more consistent with your shots and helped me with not to torque.

We need Wallerbass (Corey) to get his butt in here and give his opinion. He has helped me here in the last year and seems to know his stuff, with data to and reasoning to back it up.

I think big G is right. The type of release probably has alot to do with how much, if any, string wear is created. I shoot the same Winn release he does, and if a person shoots alot, (I do) you will go through at least a string every year using this release. I really like the release though, as it allows me to easily pull close to 10 lbs. more than I could shooting fingers. I also notice slightly better arrow flight using the D loop versus clipping directly on the string.

Interesting points If it does indeed improve accuracy, I may be making a change this year I have a little story about a guy that tied his own loop one time. He took some string and tied the loop on his bowstring pretty tight, so he thought When he clipped his release on and drew back, the knot came undone and he punched himself right in the mouth So, I am thinking I will take it to the shop and have a pro do it for me

mike, careful… the first one they tied on for me at the archery shop, let loose at about half draw. i think thats why they had me pull it back on a dry draw first !!! scared the crap out of me !!!
