Default RE: Well,....my string broke today!

I was having problems with individual strands popping on my string. The guy at the bow shop said it was b/c my draw length was to far. I've got a 29" DL and my bow was set-up for 31". He said that my fore-arm is "bowed" in at full draw and that my string is just barely grazing my fore-arm protector. He said even though it's just barely touching the arm protector it's enough to pop a strand after several hits?

The only alternative is to either buy a new bow, which may have been his motive, or learn to roll my elbow down and out as to avoid the glancing blow of my string when released. Either way, it's a PIA to have to make those adjustments just b/f the season is about to get underway.
