How critical is bow string wax? When should it be applied and in what fasion?

Thanks

String wax is very important to the life of your string. I always keep an eye on the condition of my string. You can see when it needs a waxing. You'll see tiny little string fibers sticking out from the main string. Ipush on the wax dispenser until some wax is sticking out. Run this up and down the string on 2-3 sides. Then I take my thumb and index finger, squeeze the string, and run them back and forth quickly, creatingenough heat to make the wax get soft , andwork it's way into the string fibers. Works great.

Well said early in. I do it as much as I can. I just back from a hunt and straight to the wax. I do 1 or 2 target shoots out back and it gets the wax too.

After the wax is applied i use a technique where i take a piece of dental floss and wrap it around the string and pull both ends tight. Then i pull the floss downward starting at the top of the bow string. I have found that this removes a lot of the sticky excess build up and pushes the wax deeper into the bow string.
