Abstract

This bow release accessory or “bow string loop” attaches to a bow string and is used with a trigger-style release aide device for smooth, predictable, properly-angled, and non-damaging release of the bow string after drawing and aiming. The string loop comprises two spaced-apart ends for attachment to the bow string, connected by a durable center portion around which clamp the jaws of the release aide clamp. The preferred string loop is made of bow string material or other durable, multi-filament string, for example, by coiling the string material in a figure-8, then tightly wrapping the center of the figure 8 multiple times to form and reinforce the string loop center portion, and then sealing or otherwise securing the end of the string material to the center portion. The ends of the string loop are then attached to the bow string in half-hitch-style, with the center portion extending out from the bow string in a half-circle. The string loop ends have no loose string ends at or near the bow string, but instead extend continuously around the bow string without knots or fasteners that could unknot under stress. This way, the preferred string loop is made of many coils of string material and is attached to the bow string in such a manner that it is will not unknot or easily break.
