  • Great tutorial.........except....the loops need to be oposite of each other. the way it is tied in the video is incorrect.

  • @Bohtr Actually there is no right or wrong way to tie it. Since its made from string the loop will flex and so does the string, another myth BUSTED! LOL

  • Kenny, how well does the plastic QAD Ultra-Nok II do compared to the hand tied D-loop?

  • @588158 That thing seems to mechanical to me I would worry about failure or something weird happening good ole nock to string with a string D loop

  • Grttaxi, Is the purpose of using a D loop to reduce the wear on the bow string when using a release? I am just getting into archery and have used Oneida areo force bowthat has just been rebuilt to my draw length. Is there anything special I have to do to set the position of the D Loop? By the way, Your video clips are excellent and verry well presented.

  • @588158 Yeah it reduces string wear and it also gives the arrow a push directly from behind rather than rocking in without the loop. The loop should be set level on the Onida if the limbs are in time meaning they both stop at the same time when you draw. Hope this helps, have a GREAT seaon!

  • Your my friggen hero. So Simple but helpful!

  • Hey I saw a tip on another vid where you actually mushroom out the ends before you "burn" it. so like fray it before putting the flame on it. That way it makes the little hard nob nice and big without it burning. Just thought it would help.

  • hey manthanks this really helped ima gona make a video responce and you can see what i did

  • @Bohtr what do you think about aluminocks. I'm just getting back into bow hunting and setting up my new bow. I used to use one before. Thanks and i like the info in your videos
