I've got a 35" axle to axle bow I shoot at 32" draw with a release. I definitely recommend a string loop for a release. I guarantee if I tried to hook directly to the string on my bow, the nock would pinch off and the arrow would be on the ground by the time I got to full draw. A loop that's tied above and below the arrow nock will keep the string square to the arrow's nock so it can't pinch off the string.

If you just WANT to shoot fingers with that bow, I could tell you how I'd do it.

I'd use a Cavalier FreeFlyte flipper rest.

I'd use two nock points, one above and one below the arrow nock. These nock points would be made from serving thread and tied on, not the brass clamp nocks. The thread nocks won't pinch the arrow nock and they won't tear up a tab or glove like the brass ones can.

And I would use a 2-finger release. One finger over, one under the nock. Basically, drawing normally but dropping the ring finger off the string when I got to anchor. I've done a lot of shooting with my 35" bow like this.
