Default RE: Will hunting in the rain affect the string/cable length?

Nodog, no doubt. Bow season was winding down which coincides with the rut in East Texas. We just KNEW once the rain stopped the deer would be moving. The weatherman said it should taper off before dark and well it didn’t.
Whatrya gonna do?

I put one full twist in the string today and raised the loop back to where it belonged.
This made the timing marks dead on where my pencil mark had them and returned my no-peep to a circle in a circle (pencil marks on it verified it hadn’t moved). Anchor felt a lot better (perfect match to no-peep)) and sight pin location was back on.

The only thing I don’t understand is what caused my loop to move down.
Did my loop slip? Did my serving move? I don’t know.
It wasn’t much, but enough to matter.

Looks like I need to reconsider how my loop/ ”nock point” is anchored to the string.

Gibblet, makes me wonder. You’ll be getting an order for a Tribute set up once season is over (if my current stuff last that long[&:] )
