Nope, no cable wear as of yet. I've probably put 1000 shots on the bow with it set up like it is now. I figured it would show wear if it was a reallybad thing. I'm sure it would shoot better though. I can't get to the range before I leave in the morning, but I'm taking my target with me to camp. I'll put them crossing below and see how it shoots. Worse case scenario is I put them back until the hunt is over.
