Bow fell apart in the stand tonight
I arrived at the stand around 4 and just sat nodding on and off for a while. around 5 I decided to pick my bow up and just practice like I was going to take a shot, checking my brush to make sure I was all clear. I started to pull it back just to stretch my arms and warm up abit and then PLUNK. Nothing snapped but somehow my cables slipped off the cam. I have no idea how to put it back on, nor do I have the tools.
My question is why would this happen. I shoot a PSE team Fitzgerald at 60#s I have practiced shooting in the last few days and had no problems. It's not the greatest bow but I got it for my birthday in 2001 and never bowhunted before. My goal was to take 5 deer with it before I got a better one. Didn't know if I would get into bowhunting and fell in love with it. I shoot it pretty well. I have one nice 9 pointer under my belt so far and a few misses. Anyway the plastic coating over the cable is worn away in a few spots. Should I have the cable replaced? Is this going to take a long time to get fixed? Will It change my shot placements if I have a new cable. I should mention, I just upped my poundage from 51 to 60 about 2 weeks ago. I wasn't having any problems until I sat in my stand tonight. Any info would be helpful
Thanks
