My New "Stretch" D Loop Pliers from Outer Limit Archery arrived.

[Double S]

It finally arrived. The feel, material and overall looks are great. I had to try it out so I took out my Damaged PSE bow that i use to practice my string stuff on and gave it a quick whirl. The tool was very easy to use. I did end up making the loop a little too long. I actually had the loop near the string but I was surprised how much the string stretched after using the tool. I took a quick pic and will have another D loop placed on at the proper length. You end up using less string if measured properly.

I understand. I'm not pushing anybody to buy this. I'm just sharing it with anyone that wants to read it. I am working on my only true archery WEAKNESS. I've always relied on a shop to do my bow work. I couldn't afford to buy the gear. Now things have changed a little so I'm buying items 1 or 2 at a time so i can learn from folks on here and do the work myself. :D

that cool I'm cheap I make my stuff bow press, string jig I did had have to buy my fletching jig, you learn a lot by working on your own stuff. try something if it doesn't work you have the tools to put it back or try something else and not ran to the pro shop

I agree. My local shop was 90 miles one way, 2 hour drive. :( The money i was using for the drive... i can put it into the equipment.
