RE: can i put just a regular reel on my bow
Double the end of your line over, then tie a half hitch about a 1/2 inch from the end. that should leave a loop at the end of your string. Then thread it through the hole near your knock. After you thread it through, then put the knock throuh the loop then pull tight. It won't come untied thay way, and it is easy to take your arrow off the string once you are finished fishing.
