You might want to re-tie the loop... but the problem "might" not be in your loop.

I can tell you from experience... a "pinching" loop can be caused by the way you draw your bow. I had a similar problem... but I moved my entire loop up about 1/2 inch.

Have someone watch you draw... and see if you aren't causing the pinch by the way you draw.

Once I began concentrating on a straight draw... this problem became nonexistent.

I do not use a nock with my loops... ever... and I prefer an "almost tight" fit between the arrow and the loop knots... as long as it does not pinch the arrow off of the string.
