I was just wondering how you should store your bow for the offseason? Should you take the string off to take stress off of the string and limbs? Does that prolong limb and string life, or not really?
I figured that response was coming. I guess I'm primarily talking about backup bows. I have a secondary bow that is not shot as much. I was just wondering if it is better to store it with the stress taken off of the limbs, or if there is really no benefit to that.
What good is a backup bow if you are not shooting it a lot and staying proficient with it too? You should be shooting the backup bow a lot so that if you need it, it will feel as comfortable to shoot as your primary bow.

I back off limb pressure to minimum thats about it.I have six bows and I only use 2 of them.My back up bow is identical to my hunting bow so I switch between the 2 all year.I have been thinking about removing strings on the others though.
