Watch for fraying at the middle, where your release jaws will wearon it,and at the bases of the knots. Keepthe loopwell waxed with plain ol' bowstring wax and it'll last a long time, but I would recommend replacing it each year a couple of weeks before opening day of bow season. It's not something you want to have break on you unexpectedly while drawing down on Mr. Big.
