Skinny strings & Cat whiskers?

[Bob Palmer]

Any one have any suggestions how to keep cat whiskers from migrating/bunching up to one side of the string? Had my bow perfect! Shooting today, the cat whiskers all bunch and then started falling out! Now I have to start over! Errrrrrr! I tie them on with a super tight constrictor knot currently!

I don't use a full whisker. I split the strip in half and then just tie a knot and pull it as  tight as I can. I've never had a problem doing it this way yet. Once I have pulled the knot tight, I simply trim the lengths to match. This also allows you to slide the whisker up or down without ever having it come loose. It will take some tugging though. Shooting the bow will split the individual strings. Jon

Yup... Ryan has it down to a science.

3x on Ryan That's my way

Same here.  Cut in half and don't split the string.  I tie as tight as I can without cutting myself on the serving string and sometimes add a little shot of super glue.

Thanks all! I tie them on the same as Ryan! Used less whiskers this time...gonna try more next go round!!

Slick way to do them. I think I have found the way I will do them from now on.

I also tie my knocks on like he does. The guy is very informative and helpful. Is there any other way to tie on adjustable knocks?  mike

An "Old Dog" just learned a new trick.

I tie it like that vid but I use b 50 and  I put super glue on it the knot and all around it before I start shooting.

Come on John...I'll be ready...at least I think I will
