Folks, I watched Videos on string trackers and they only show screw in Broadheads, does anyone use a string tracker w glue on BH, if so how do you attach string when you get to stand? Thank you. I like the looks of Chad Orde's model.

I wrap a small piece of the hook side of Velcro, about 2 rows, around the shaft right behind the broadheads. Just put a loop in the string and wrap it around the Velcro. Works good!

I just use black electrical tape. Wrap the string a couple of times and wrap tape around that. I use about 3 inches or so
[attachment=1,msg2790534]I tie just behind the broadhead using a pipe hitch. Works great and you don't need to add anything to the arrow.
Thank you for the suggestions, I will try all 3 of them to see which on works best for me....
We used to tie them on with a couple of half hitches then wrap electrical tape around the knot .

Great idea! Now I have to learn how to tie a pipe hitch!

Page 2 in the how to forum is a tutorial by Guru on using the Velcro. The pictures are gone (thanks photo bucket) but the verbage is still there.
I tie a lot of knots, but don't know what a pipe hitch is. I'm guessing it's a clove hitch. Looking at the photo, it may have an extra wrap or two in it. Better than tape.
[attachment=1,msg2790804]It's four wraps around and finished with two half hitches.
Very similar to an ascender knot that mountain climbers use.
I use the velcro hook. Start wrap about 3" from end. Wrap twice, go around the main line, then wrap twice in opposite direction. No knots needed.
