Default RE: #8125- how long will it continue to creep?

One plausible explanation I've developed is that the string didn't
stretch overnight, but had been continually creeping, and finally
crept enough that my nock became low enough to contact and careen off
the black holding fibers of the Whisker Biscuit BK2, causing it to
kick upwards and nosedive, providing the low impact. I'll check the
cam/axels/bushings out as best as possible, and assuming they appear
fine, will just start with twisting my string up. If I recall
correctly, the cable controls cam rotation, and my cam timing marks
are dead on, leading me to suspect string creep as the culprit. If
so, I'll twist it up until it feels right and see what that does to my
nock point and tune. Hopefully, just getting the string back to
proper length will resolve the issues.

I'm thinking my string/cable will be of a NO CREEP EVER material, no
matter what small amount of energy I have to give up to get it, which I think is what Merlin does, and now I see why. This fricking sucks...
