    Here is the same setup with a shorter loop and a 1/2" longer draw length.For spots with this release,this is probably best.

    I still have the same basic anchors,just slightly changed.

    I have really fixed some of drawing techniques from this video so don't pay them any attention.

    Here is a pic of my current loop at the shorter draw.

    So if you change to a loop, is there a release type that is better?

    I see the hook releases that claim to be designed for loops. Does it make a difference?

    What tfox said, your mechanical (arrow) draw length remains the same but you're physical draw length increases by the length of your loop. If you're shootin at the short end of your draw length you might not notice a loop if it's tied short. If you're at the long side of your draw (almost too long) you will have to change something if you add a loop. I'm proud of you guys though, my bow shop pro says the most prevalent problem he sees is people shootin bows that are too long for them. You must not be! lp
