Default String Loop

I was wondering if anyone recommends a specific string loop. I have had 3 different ones on my general now and it keeps twisting and turning all the time and it messes with my peep since it is twisting and turning so much.

Any help appreciated.

That camo braided stuff is JUNK. Head over to the classifieds and get you some BCY D loop material from redhdcharm. No more knot spinning, that stuff cinches down tight.

I agree!!

Also make sure who is tying it knows what they are doing or learn to tie them yourself.

I have the same problem right now and I have to keep twisting my peep sight with my hand a couple of times to get it to line up before every shot. I have to get a smaller peep sight anyway because I have the mega hunter and just did not think about it when I bought it how big it was, LOL! So, I'll probably get both problems taken care of soon when I get a 3/16 peep.

I have the 1/4" Meta Peep on mine and I have went through 3 string loops and they all twist and turn and sometimes when I pull my bow back I can't see through my peep. I am getting really frustrated.

Hmm, I may switch to a TruGlo or Eastman than. I know what you mean, it is a big distraction.

It's not the peep. It's the setup, with proper setup things will work smooth.

Dan, Yeah I figured it wasn't the peep. It's the string loop and the bowshop must have put on crappy loops or not have tied them right.
