I use a loop and love it. It also saves your serving.

Clip onto the string. Shoots great and maximizes draw lengthand arrow speed. The only problem is when you draw and let down you need to re-knock your arrow.

String loop..... Have little or no torque when shooting. My string and servings will last longer. It has been great for me since I made the switch, should of made the switch sooner.

I checked both methods. I've never used a string loop until this new 06' Allegiance. My previous Hoyt's have not had a string loop.

No loop here. When I'm confronted with the specter of adding an accessory to my bow, I ask myself two simple questions:
[ol][*]Will it get me any more deer?[*]Can it fail in the field?[/ol]
In this case, I don't think a string loop is going to be the difference between me getting the big buck or not. If I flinch or make a bad shot, that's on me, and a loop wouldn't make a difference.Also, on the downside, it can come untied, and that would really suck. I try to keep my hunting setup as simple as possible so that nothing ever fails in the field.

My release is a string loop that goes directly around the string. They are a really old design, and I am not sure they even make them anymore. I love them though and have been hunting with the same one for at least 12 years.

I went with the string loop when I got my new bow. At first I was sceptical (and a bit nervous) about the strength of it, but it actually works wonders. It's provides a perfect, no string torque, release time and again.
