Being totally new to archery, Dan Pery had to instruct me on proper bow stringing too.  He taught me the step through method.

I don't think anybody has described this yet. 

first put the string on the bottom nock and place that tip either on your right foot or to the outside of the right foot.

Second, spread the bow and string and "step through" with your left foot, keep feet sholder width apart. (I find it moe efficient to slightly step back with my left foot.)  slide your left hand up to the top tip while holding the upper loop in the fingers of your right hand.

Third, "sit back" on the handle while pulling with your left hand and bring the loop to the nock.  Sitting on the handle should put even pressure on both limbs.
