clove hitch

 

Your joking right?

 

When in doubt, keep it simple. I use a simple overhand knot to make a loop. Double your line- roughly 5" and tie an overhand knot. It doesn't matter if you shoot spinners and tie to the back, or if you shoot slides/rings with a Retriever- the knot is the same. Glue is not needed. This video describes it better than I can:

Bowline

 

This is how I roll.....

 

i do 2 over hand knots one on reteiver line and 1 on arrow

 

That's how i tie my knots! never had a problem once with them :tu: only time i've had a problem is when i shot through a gar and it's scales cut the line... lucky i had a glow in the dark arrow so i got it back i just had to reach to the bottom and grab it

 

We shoot Muzzy 200 or 600 pound line and use a standard loop knot. in 3.5 years, we have NEVER had a knot fail or break.

 

Yeah, I made a loop on the slide and one on the bow for quick change, actually used the same video you posted marc, it just didn't show the actual knots made, just how they work.

 

ugh, I hate ehow, every time I pause the video to let it load it randomly starts playing again

 

bowline for me aswell
