My previous string was 3 years old and I shot with a release off the string for all but about 50 shots. It held up really well, but I just spent $75 for new string and cables and I' m planning to fling a lot more arrows with this string than I did with the last so I thought I' d try a loop again to protect my investment. Since I haven' t actually shot with it yet, I may still go back to off the string but I' m hoping to get used to the loop.

I did place a brass nock inside the loop just to make sure things don' t move around any. But I' ve got a 1" longer draw than you Range, so I guess I can give up a couple fps.
