fasteddie Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Anyone use a metal string loop ? I used one a few years ago and thought it was just the thing . Works great . It makes a ka-zing noise when you shoot . I don't know if the deer can hear it but I can . Replaced it with a String loop and the only problem I have with that is ..... it allows for wear on the string where you nock the arrow . I must have at least 3 of those metal string loops in my shop . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYbuck50 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 i like that the string loop is silent, i usually replace it each yr though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 regular string D-loop is quiet and works well enough. also it's a lot cheaper and won't put as much wear and tear on your release. that's my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATbuckhunter Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I would think that the noise from the loop will spook a deer every once in a while. I personally use string loop material for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 I put the String Loop material on 2 bows and that works fine . It's not hard to tie them on but get the stiffer loop material . Tou still get wear and tear on the serving on the string from nocking the arrow . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I had a metal string loop and hated it. It would slide on the string after several shots. Had to actually use an epoxy to lock it in place on the bow string. When I changed strings I kept it in my tackle box, and when someone says they want to try one out, I give it to them. They usually give it back after a few weeks of shooting. The string loops work great, are easy to replace, and I lock them in place with just a tiny bit of bow wax, never have them move, and they last at least 2000 - 3000 shots (at least that's when I replace them, still look ok, but just in case...)

MACHINIST Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I had one a while back and it wore through my serving pretty quick.Never again!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
