Yes, you can cut it off if you do not like it. I was wondering how long it was going to take for someone to ask for instructions. Here is a link for how to pics. Charles in Canada is to be given credit for posting . http://www.archerytalk.com/vb/showth...4&goto=newpost

It look's pretty good but I'd almost think that it look's like it might be too much work to putting it on your string.

I tried making one of those last summer. However, I could not get it tight on the string, it would spin on the string and therefore it would move up and down a little bit.
I use a Catfish Loop, and use tied string nocks to hold it in place. If you take the time to serve it real tight, you can keep it from moving or spinning without the string nocks. You can use one string nock or two, place them outside or inside the loop or make one nock larger or longer. The nocks can be twisted up or down the string to allow for micr-adjustment of your nocking point.



There are many advantages to the catfish loop. It will not stretch even a little bit. You can easily custom make the diameter and length to meet your exact preference and duplicate it identically each time. It will not slip or come off, and I doubt one would ever break. I put 40,000 shots on one (slipped it on a new string when I replaced the string). It never did break. I just left it on when I sold the bow.

Here's the link - Catfish loop

It usually takes making a couple to get one you like. You have to put more wraps into the serving process than you think. Once you get the hang of it, you can make a good one in about 15 minutes that will outlast your string. On the other hand, if you make one a bit loose, it will act as a string dampaner and make your string unbelievably quiet on the shot.
