[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 184696, member: 337"] no flipping way is the caliper or j hook mechanism able to put enough torque on a d-loop to affect flight. Take a look at the mechanics of what's going on and imagine the ability of that little device to whip the d-loop off to one side or the other enough to matter to the mass/angle/velocity that is the bow/string/arrow Sure - there's got to be SOME - but even that little bit is quite consistent - so it gets factored in by sight adjustment even if it has some 1/4" impact at 50 yds you could measure. J hooks look simpler/faster to engage and maybe less wear/tear to me but I shoot a 10 yr old Tru-Fire caliper and absolutely love it. I guess this would matter for world class target shooting (x counts) but I would think most of the observable impact on the effect on accuracy is all in the archer's head not that what's in your head doesn't matter - it's a lot like golf ask Tiger Woods about what goes on in the head [/QUOTE]
