Default RE: Release loop or shooting off the string?

A lot of times for me it depends on the application or the bow. I have used both and it really doesn't matter either way personally. For shorter axle to axle bows a string loop helps with string pinch, and it also helps with peep alignment in some cases.

That being said I don't shoot any more accurately with a loop than I do without one if the bow is set up and tuned properly for each.

I'm kinda surprised this poll isn't a lot more lopsided. Don't know anyone who is still shooting off the string.

I shoot off the sting but I guess I am the minority. That is how I have always shot and never really saw the need to add one my bow has always shot fine without it.

my bow will be ready this weekend, and he said he isent putting a bow loop on because its not necessary, and they have to be changed sometimes, but will put one on if i want.
I would much rather change the loop than change the string . there is less wear and less pinch . i would have him put one on and try it out i think you will like it . If not you can take it off
