    I bought and installed a Komfort Kisser earlier this year. Like it, gives me an extra anchor contact.

    I lost one of the clips that secure it, right after I installed it. So I used some serving thread to tie it in, looped it like tying in a rip cord, with over hands and then finished it off with a square knot and burned in the ends.

    Works for a bit, but it came loose again.

    Any suggestions for a clip? I sent the folks at KK an e-mail, they never replied.

    I went to my local archery shop and bought a kisser for 99 cents. It came with the two clips that you need. Might be worth a dollar to get the clip you need?

    Yeah a kisser is a throw away item IMO. Just get a new one.

    I used a knock that goes on a bowstring, and just took the little rubber piece on the inside off. Still holding after roughly 200 shots

    makes sense.... the KK was about 5.00 or so,

    Will check out if any of the cheaper ones have the clips that will work, over thinking this I guess.

    Thanks!

    I tried that before buying a kisser that had the two small clips. My bow was ALOT louder with those two nock points holding the kisser than the clips. Just my experience.
