Default RE: fred bear instinct problems

I think its aproblem with all of their newer bows. Just had the strings changed on my truth bow and the serving on the WC string parted after around 60 shots at my hunting camp. The cam simply creates too much stress at that point. Temporarily for hunting last week I installed emergency serving on the area using some 130lb test hollow core spectra I had on my tuna fishing reel. Seems to be holding up much better than all of the archery specific servingmy shop has used. May actually just reserve with 80 lb Jerry brown hollow core spectra from one of my smaller fishing reels to get a finer serve and leave it be. Not using a serving tool just making overhand knots around one side then the other and backuntil I cover the area. Take care.
