D loop twisting

[sambo73]

Its twisting after the shot. Top is loose. I loosened it and shortened loop up. Now its twisting. Any ideas?

Tighten it.

Install a torqueless catfish loop instead

New string stretching? Every time I've put on a new string, my D loop ends up turning 90 degrees or better after a couple few hundred shots.

Tighten it.

How? U would think me drawing and shooting it would tighten it?

take a pair of needle nose pliers, place inside loop and open them up as much as you can.

What? I've never had that issue, but I don't have string stretch issues either.

Getcha one of these, stretches the loop after the first knot, sets the right length, then finally stretches the whole loop.

It's a style of d loop that isn't tightly gripping the string until it gets pressure from drawing back, so it doesn't torque or twist the string.

And make sure your loops are oppisite each other- i.e. tied on oppisite side of the string.

Do this Sammy. Shooting it won't tighten it enough to not move.
