Default RE: Changing strings how often?

ORIGINAL: gibblet
rick, i don't know bro. have you turned your poundage up yet? i would think they'd last quite a while at 53#, but up to 60# for 3d season i may change them out after the season as much as you shoot.

this is an area i'm no expert in, at all. i've never had a string break on me while shooting so i have no real time-table. i would really, really like to keep it that way. i always lean on the safeside, and its really just guessing on my end so i don't want anybody to take what i'm saying as anything difinitive. i've seen some strings on real good shooters bows i'd be scared to shoot, but they're too superstitious to change them.
Gotcha. I am now up to 59 lbs and it is maxed out. I will probably switch it sometime around 8000 shots I am guessing.
