When should I Re-String my bow
 
I'm coming up on the two year mark on my bow should I re-string it after this season?

how much do you shoot it and do you keep it waxed?

I shoot 3 to 4 days a week acouple dozen arrows minimum per week off season and maybe once a week a dozen arrows with field tips during season. I wax my string sometimes twice a month or when I notice it getting a little sloppy below my loop. I seem to wax it during season more frequently since I'm up and down out of trees and in and out of the woods and obviously when I have been out in wet weather.

Sounds like you're due to give Gibblet a ring for a new set of strings and cables. Manufacturers typically recommend yearly replacement for that level of use; keeping in mind that manufacturer recommendations are based on half-life of a product, you're definitely due.

So this Gibblet guy is who I need to talk to? I'm guessing he does custom strings?
