RE: String loop questions
 

ORIGINAL: BigJ12

I shoot a 34in AtoA bow with a 31in draw and I find the loop to be a big help with nock pinch. I also noticed that my 3/16in peeps would no longer allow me to view my sight clearly due to the increased angle of the bow string. This put my peep futher away from my eye. I switched to a 1/4in peep and it fits great (view of the sight through the peep).
With arms as long as a silverback gorilla, how do you only get a 31" draw??;)

LOL

If you go by my wingspan (82in), I should be drawing 323/4 But I have found that an inch shorter draw is better for "hunting conditions" I can maneuver better and take off angle shots easier with a slightly shorter draw length.

The bows I have measure a little over 31in in actual draw length. My Brownings set at 31 actually draw 31 3/4 and the Bowtech/Diamond set at 31 draws to an actual length of 31 1/2

So with a string loop attached it is very close to my regular draw length but makes for a much better hunting rig.

If I were to shoot at targets all day and have the luxury to be able to get a proper stance/form every timethen I probably would keep the long draw.

I know what you mean, exactly. I used to shoot a 32" draw and now I'm down to 30" for all shooting. More accurate and consistant.
