Default Center Serving Issue?

I have about 300-400 shots on my 08 Martin Cheetah and I noticed the lower end of my center serving is unraveling. I know this can't be normal...do you think there is another problem with my bow that would cause this?

Thats what i would sayto. You can do it yourself in a couple minutes or take it in. Its something that is easy and cheap to fix.

Can I do it without replacing the entire center serving saving me the hassle of losing my nocking point and d-loop etc.?

What happens if the center serving comes undone?

Your string will probably wear quicker. You will also have problems keeping your arrow knocked. The serving helps keep the knock tight. Measure your loop, kisser and what ever else you have on the serving. If you measure them carefully and write them down you should be able to set up the bow exactly like it was. You will be better off to remove everything and completely redo everything.

Measure from your top axel to the top of the serving, to the top of the D-loop, the nock set, the peep, and all other points of referance and record them. Then you can remove them reserve and replace them and all should be back where you started. I take and write all the info down on all of my rigs so I can go back to them for referance later. Also if I have a problem later like a D-loop or nock that slips I can take a min. and measure to see where I am at.
