Thanks for the concern
Just measured. Center of D loop to center of peep 5 3/4". D loop twist everything right into place, though these progressive bifocals are more of an issue than peep twist. Replaced string after last season and shoot almost everyday (6 yards in the basement). The position bugged me at first but after 10 months of shooting it is what it is, and it just rolls into place. Not seeing anything has become the norm this season, but you're right about the hands and feet. Windchill was about 25 with steady 17mph N winds.
