I shoot on and was amazed[] the first time I used one. The best 3 bucks you will ever spend on your bow.[8D]

I use a loop along with a Winn Free loop release. All I have to do is snag the loop with the release.

I just started to use a loop and I am pretty sure I will stay with it.

i also use a loop.. becareful though as someone said it will increase your drawlength so if you do switch to one you may need to get it in a bow press and change your length to where its suitable.. it will increase your length 1probably about an 1"

The addition of a loop does not change your draw length. It changes your release hand position or anchor of your release hand. To compensate, you have to change your release hand anchor; or, better yet, adjust your release shorter.

They also now make releases designed just for loops.

I switched to a loop this year as well. I think its biggest contribution to my accuracy is that it appears to inhibit the effects of poor form errors to some extent.

I shoot one and accuracy improved, but that isn' t really a fair statement. When I went from fingers to a release I went with a loop.
