Guru came up with a great way to attach the string to wood arrows (I have not tried this because I don't shoot wood arrows, but I trust my brother, Curt!). Just put a small (1/4" wide) piece of the hook part of self-stick velcro right behind your broadhead. Then wrap the string around the shaft on the velcro. The hooks hold the string great!

Here is a pic I robbed off of one of Curts threads:

:thumbsup:   Cool!  I have some of that.  Gonna be much better than tying and cutting.

Good luck to everyone plannin to use them. I can promise you that sooner rather than later you will utter the words " we would never have found this deer without a tracker".

I like this idea...should work for a back quiver person like myself. When I get to stand , take arrow out of quiver, wrap string arond hook velcro and good to go.   :archer:

I killed several deer using a tracker 15-20 years ago, when I started bowhunting, but for some reason got away from it. I'm seriously considering sending my Widow back to get a stabilizer bushing put in during the offseason though, so I can go back to one. Thanks for the post and the videos Jerry...I watched several of them today while "working."

When they are biting, fishing for hogs is always exciting.

Excellent harvest...congrats!

I made a u shaped holder out of flat 1" stock, put mole skin on the part that is against the bow and tape it on. Works real good on a bow with no holes to screw the holder on to the bow.
