Today I moved the temp probes onto the pex lines coming into the hx and leaving the hx. Looks to be only a two degree difference there. Strangely enough though they don't read well strapped to the pex vs strapped to the hx copper. I would think that the copper may allow them to be more responsive to changes in temp quickly but not be this far off. Right now I am ready 162 coming in and 160 leaving. When it was strapped to the copper on the hx it was ready 183 coming in and 175 returning. I think I will move them back to the copper but it showed that I was not losing nearly as much as I thought and I don't think a bypass loop would be beneficial.

Once strapped to the line, do you insulate around the well?

LOL I don't use a temp gauge with a well. I use the REDI-CHECK wireless remote thermostat. I strap the temp probes to the inlet and outlets for the HX. Surprisingly very accurate. My infrared thermometer reads the same as the REDI-CHECK does.
