Apply a small bit, and i mean small bit, of super glue where your release attaches. And, as c4extrem said, try using a little more tension on the jig.if u do go to a loop, make sure its not goin to increase your draw so much that u cant shoot. Thats why i cant use one.

the bow i use is 34 ata. i have tryed to use more tension and that seems to want the serving to seperate more lol. i see theres some type of adhesive that you can apply to your wraps will this help at all. also on the sharp bend on the cam it wants to seperate there. i have been using ultra cam string.i started making my own strings because my winners choice seperated at the same places lol.

Are you serving the opposite way that the string is twisted ?? I do this and it seems to help. I alos shoot off of the string and found that wrapping the serving with dental floss where the release contacts works well too.
