Default D-loop turning...

Lately, my D-loop has started to turn slightly. This, obviously causes my peep to turn a bit at full draw. Not a good thing. I have been able to deal with it so far, but what is the best way to prevent this?

Buy some good, quality d-loop material (solid color preferably) from rdhdcharm in our classifieds (she offers it at an extremely good price) and follow the instructions for tying it inmy thread pinned to the top of the technical forum.

Lancaster Archery Supply sent me mine in a day.....and charged me less than a $1/foot. I'll second the BCY, though.

Thanks, Greg. I will give a shot at redoing it myself.

It's really easy and you can become quite good at it in very little time. I'd check with Redcharm also.

Super Lady!!

Yeh i went there when i was looking to buy mine..., i didnt stay long, i went to checkout and they were adding a min. 6.95 s&h (im not sure if you did something different to wave shipping on such a small item or not)

I got mine from the redhdcharm also and sent 5.00 and got 5 1/2 ft. of bcy material... 3.25 of my color choice and 2.25 of free samples. I got mine in 2 days. IDK just sayin'

Yeah Jeff, rdhdcharm is 2.99 for 3 feet, that's $1/ft with the exact same if not better customer service and cheaper shipping.

BCY is probably your answer Gundeck, check out our gal in the classifieds.
