Zak.......any idea how it happened. The reason I asked was I know this is your first year and one misstake many rookies make is keeping item loose in their bowcase. I was at a archery shop the other day and talking to some new hunters. I noticed everthing was kind of tossed in their case. I didn't think much about it until I saw broadheads laying in there! Many things you put in your case can mess up a string. I once had a quiver that had a pretty sharp edge on it. Strings rarely break after a year.... let alone 5 years. Maybe it did but I would really look hard for a reason and make sure it isn't repeated!

Hunting is getting close.......Good Luck!
