Leaving the string on?

[killzonearchery]

Should I leave the string on at all times if I am shooting everyday.

Depends on what type of bow you have. Selfbows need to be unstrung. I leave my laminated recurves strung. But unstring my Longbows by the Bowyers advice. Best thing to do IMO is check with the bowyer.

I have a laminated recurve and they told me if i am goint o be shooting everyday but not to if i am not going to shot for like a week.

as long as you shoot a lot leave the string on

I have a recurve that's only been unstrung a half dozen times in the past 16 yrs. It hasn't lost a pound in weight. Most of my bows remain strung simply due to the fact that I shoot them all so much.

I unstring them all when I'm done shooting for the day--recurves and longbows.It only takes 2 seconds to unstring it.

I don't recommend stringing a recurve without a stringer. Just my opinion.
