damnifiknow, Frank.

I've actually been thinking of going to a rope on my thumb release to shorten my DL a little. My loop keeps stretching.....if ever so slightly.

I would "imagine" the the smaller the pinch point in the place your release attaches, though.....the less torque on the string. I think this is splittin' hairs, though.

Great question. I've seen your release and it looks sound.
Jeff, on your Conny the loop really is unnecessary. The loops were created as you stated for pinch and extreme angles on small ATA bows. Hell, even on my 36" ATA 82nd I wouldn't need a loop. I never shot loops on any of the 36" Hoyts I had in the past. My first loop was on my 33" ATA Ally.
