Put a pair of needle nose pliers into the loop closed and then open them using the outside of the pliers head to push between the string and the D loop. I bet you'll see it tighten up. Just make sure it's in the position you want it in.

I already did that I'm wondering if the serving is bad , I did move my nocking point down it could be right where the nock was before

 

I have tried a couple brands that Scheels sold off the shelf and could never get them to hold. Switched to only ordering bcy 23 or 24 and they hold lock tight, especially 23, but it is thin and can slip through some caliper releases.

 

Undo one knot on your d-loop.
Retie that knot, making the d-loop super short. Like this long, really FLAT.





Insert the nose for needlenose pliers (put both jaws) inside the super short, FLAT d-loop
and stretch the d-loop to at least TWICE the length, when it was flat.



BEFORE SIZE.



While stretching to double length with jaws/tips of needlenose pliers.

AFTER size.





This d-loop has been stretch MORE than 3X the original "flat" size.
Helps to wax the d-loop cord, with string wax,
so the knot is slippery. When you STRETCH the flat d-loop to more than 3X the original "flat" size,
the string wax helps your d-loop knot to slip into a SUPER TIGHT d-loop knot, that will not move.

 

Could be separated serving under the knots. I actually had this problem a couple weeks ago when I installed a new d loop. I tied a new one with #23 material and waxed it so it gets super tight, my serving was also a little separated where the knots go so my fix was just to even out the separated serving with my finger nails for a while and when I tightened the loop it got super tight so it wont move around now. The proper fix would probably be to tie a new serving on the string but so far I have no problems

 

I have a pair of Easton pliers and they work great. They have a small groove on the outside of the pliers just for stretching d loops. I also use BCY 23 and that material tightens down like no other and the small diameter and flexible material is great if you shoot a hinge. The 23 is more forgiving in regards to hand torque with the release.

 

Same here bro but am sure it will tighten up if i tried enough .

 

Never had that problem.
