Cold and condisation on bows?
 
I know bows are made for the cold, but I was wondering if when you bring your bow inside to warmth from the very cold outside, which causes condinsation, affects bows? I know guns you have to wipe down or try and keep dry, but didn't know if it affected bows, or if your suppose to do something about that, or if it matters.

When I come in from the cold, I pluck the string a few times and blow the bow off with compressed air.

Anyone use silicone spray to protect their bows?

I leave mine out in my mud room/ enclosed porch during the winter. There is no heat out there so I don't have to worry about it. It should be fine to just wipe it down with a soft cloth. You need to wait until it warms to the same temp as the room though or it will keep condensing.
