Thanks Hotburn, it makes sense now. I'll check out the strings and serving when I get home now that I know what to look for. Also when using string wax, do you apply it to your strings and cables everywhere except the center serving?

Another quick question, if you dont mind. When you get ready to take it to the shop for new string or new serving, do you take the entire crossbow or do you disassemble it and just take the bow unit?
