I shot a Mathews LX with a Scott Little Goose release. After approx 200 shots, I have noticed my serving is starting to slip.

What is the best release aid (Tru Nock, Ultra-Nok, or a release loop) that will protect my string and be accurate? Also, what is more accurate: a release aid or using the bow string?

Thanks

Welcome to the board. Are the tru-nock and ultra-nok metal loops? I use a string loop. I have heard that metal loops aren't good for string. Also release aids are probably more accurate because you get the same grip everytime. What is mean is if you use string then you grab under the arrow. The string is extended at the furthest point where you grab. If you grab right behind the arrow with a loop then that part of the string will be extended more and your arrow will go faster.

Forget about those metal loops and use a string loop. The metal loops are noisier, heavier, wear on the jaws of your release, have screws that could come loose right when you don't want them to, they don't twist like a string to reduce torque either.

The string loop is much easier to fine tune up and down as you don't have to unscrew the loop to move it like you do with the metal loops.

You just can't beat the extremely forgiving nature of a rope loop. To maximize your shooting accuracy with the D-loop then look into a loop specific release like the TRU BALL Short-N-Sweet II, an awesome little release that as smooth shootin' as anything I've tried.

OK, everybody likes the string loop. So what is the best one and how do you tie it on so it will no come off while shoting.

There is no best one. It's just some string loop material. You can get it at any pro shop.

Look at the picture above and you can see that the top knot is tied oposite the bottom knot. This assures that the loop isn't pulling to one side or the other.

When you tie on the rope loop, how do you keep it from sliding up and down your string. If it slids just a little bit, it will throw your arrow off.

When you get the loop tied on right and shoot about 30 shots, it will tighten the knots, to the point you won't be able to move the loop without twisting it up the string. You are shooting a great release but the string and cable on your LX, IMO opinion are junk. I replaced the "zebra" string and cable on my LX with a Winners choice after they stretched about 4 times in 300 shots and it is one of the best purchases I've made for my bow. Don

I will totally agree with DoninVa on this one.........you've got a great release and an awesome bow. Unfortunately, the zebra strings on the 03 LX's are absolute junk. Mine stretched for 3 months and finally I gave in and replaced it with a winners choice string.
You won't have any problems with the string loop moving if it properly installed bya pro shop. Once the string is good and settled in I usually put a drop of super glue on each knot to ensure that the loop does not twist side to side.
A note for the Mathews fans and Outback owners. So far my string on my new Outback seems to be ten times better than the string on my LX. I've shot approximately 300 arrows from it and it only stretched about an 1/8". My pro shop told me that it was a Tiger string, not a Zebra string and that it is a much better string. I know that both are made by Mathews and will be keeping a watchful eye on it.
