Gibblet makes a great point.I recently went from a 31"ata to a 35" With the 31"ata I didnt shoot a string loop because if I did I would have to draw past my anchor point that I had become comfortable with. However my draw is 27 1/2 or 27 depending on the bow.(some are longer than advertised) So string pinch wasnt that big of an issue for me. Now that i shoot a 35"ata i shoot a loop in order to have light string contact with my nose and the anchor that im comfortable withand alsodropping the draw length to 27" instead of 27 1/2.
