Default RE: How long should I use a string before changing

ORIGINAL: Dryridge

How do you reserve it....Isn't it too tight to the rail to hold up for a server?

I am being lazy here and asking instead of getting up to go look at mine!!!

How do you hold yours up? Do you use a regular serving tool? Have you ever used the heavy monofilament serving on crossbows?

Thanks in advance
You should make yourself a jig to stretch the string tighter than it is when the string is on the bow at rest. Search for the jig here. There is a good thread on it. Mono is used by target recurve shooter who shoot with fingers. Mono will not hold up to the abuse of the claws. There are plenty of good serving tools. My favorite one is the Cavalier Pro String Server. http://www.lancasterarchery.com/shop...p?cPath=44_300
