    Default D-Loop Lower Knot Keeps Rotating

    I don't think this is anything more than an annoyance but just the same. The lower knot will spin around on the string while the upper not stays put. I have tried spreading it with a needle nose pliers, pulling on it and shooting it but it keeps slipping. Is there something I can do?

    ^^ The way it should be, never having to know if customer service is great or not! Too bad it isn't that way for all companies. It makes you wonder when eveyone knows about great customer service from a company doesn't it? ^^

    Super Glue. I did it on my D-loop and have not had a problem since.

    When I was at the shop getting my string put back on, the shop owner tied the loop and used needle nose pliers to tighten them up, then he put the loop on the bow scale and pulled the knot on that while holding the string. I think he got the scale upwards of 100 lbs. My knots have not moved.

    MLN1963, can you take a photo of it? I have never have a problem with the loop turning and I just use my release aid to stretch it. What d-loop material and what serving do you use?

    I'll get a pic of it. I'm pretty sure it is BCY but what I don't know. Just asked for some d loop string and he cut some off a roll. It was a buck a foot is all I remember.

    First is the center serving twisted in the same direction of the string if not, redo the center serving in the same direction. Make sure center serving is tight and consistent. Second wax the d loop well then install. I do many of them with no problems.

    All the above were done on installation. I will probably redo tomorrow after I test new arrows. I might need to make some changes anyway. Serving seems tight.
