Default D loop issue now!!!

Gosh this is rediculous, anyway, now when I shoot as of today, my d loop ends up being twisted out top the left, how do I rotate it back to straight and keep my peep and loop aligned, how to I keep it from rotating??

Is the knot spinning on the serving? I have that issue, and HATE it. Drives me nuts. If that's what it is, simply spin the knot back around where it should be, and FOR NOW use a little super glue to keep it there until you can tie a new loop on. What material is your loop made of? I would recommend a new loop w/ BCY D-loop material. That braided camo stuff is CRAP.

No the loop itself is not spinning, it is the string that is twisting, this just started today.

I am having that same issue right now myself. Its kind of frustrating and I was wondering why it would do that.But mine doesn't look like it is stretched any, both my cams look even compared to the limbs on my Guardian.

I JUST HAD THAT SAME PROBLEM AND THE ANSWER IS. . . . GET THE METAL D LOOP FROM TRUBALL.COM ITS CALLED THE TRU-NOK . . . .IT HAS A TAB THAT KEEPS YOUR STRING AND PEEP FROM TWISTING

are the knots on your loop on opposite sides? That is one things guys do who tie loops wrong the knots have to be facing in opposite directions, if not the loop may want to twist on the string. If you post a pic of it I can tell
