 1) Cutoff approximately 3"'of 1/8" dacron line and finish by burning both ends.

 2) Fold line evenly around Bowstring, just below the nock set. Beginning at the bowstring end, using Fastflite and a heavy sewing needle, stitch the two halves of the tab together to within 1/4" of the end.  Be sure to leave several inches of Fastflite at the beginning for securing later.  Drawing#l 

3) Continue stitching back to the bowstring, ending at the opposite side where you started. Pull the two ends of the Fastflite As tight as possible and secure with 3-4" square knots. Cut off the excess Fastflite and finish the knot by burning the ends. Your tab should closely resemble Drawing #2.  All that is left is to Serve small knots above and below the tab to keep it in place on the string.  Keep the ends of the tab spread in the form of a Y for a solid, 2 molar, grip. Your new tab should last for many thousands of shots. 

Good Shooting! PS -Don't be afraid to make improvements and if You do, please share them in a letter to the Good News.
