I had the same problem. I looped a piece of serving material around the base of the loop and wound it around the serving on the top and the bottom. I started doing this last year and it seems to hold up good. Wind it in the direction so that the serving material pulls the string in the proper direction when you pull back on the string. When it came down to the moment of truth, my peep was right there. Man them elk steaks taste good. For some reason whatever I am doing when I train my string it never seems to line up my peep. So, I started cheating.
