Loud creak on draw/SQ2
This creak turned a doe inside out this morning, been ignoring it until today.
Don't really want to have the bow torn down this late into the season.
Any idea of the cause, any danger of my bow coming apart?
Thanks

Usually its in the QCCs, which are the yoke bushings on either side of your axel up top (idler wheel axle).
Its a 5 min fix if you have a bow press. Or take it to the shop and have them press it, pop off those QCCs and put a little light lubricating grease on the inside (limb side) of those bushings.
90% of the time, thats all it takes... no muss.... no fuss.
Good luck.
