This helps not to have a longer than needed loop and still prevents the loop from pinching. It can be done on top, bottom, or both, (all in personal preference.) The reason I hate long loops is it extends your length of draw. (NOTICE I didn't say draw length.) If your draw length is 28" and your have a 3/4" loop then you have changed your anchor point dramatically.

That can be a good thing or it can be a bad thing.

What I am seeing alot nowadays are people getting their loops so short that when they use the corner of their mouth and the tip of their nose as string anchors,they can't get their draw elbow back in the proper position.
