I just noticed yesterday while shooting that my
serving has come loose on the end of my buss
cable. I put a WC cable on when I bought the
Q2 about a year ago, hoping this wouldn't be
a problem......I was wrong. I'm wondering can
I have the cable reserved? If so, what serving
would you recommend? I'm assuming there must
be some burrs causing this wear, can they be
removed?

I showed it to the guy who runs my bowshop and
he say "that happens all the time, call Mathews".
He said another guy sent his Q2 in to Mathews
with the same problem and the first thing they
did was throw away his WC cable. I guess I'd
like to fix this "in house" if possible and
avoid sending my bow in. I could sure use some
advice on this.

Thanks
TB

If this is a Winners Choice cable they'll replace it if you send it back to them. Otherwise if there isn't any broken strands you can reserve it with #2D serving. Just take the cable off the bow and remove the old serving then reserve it. If there is a burr on the cam I've had good luck using a diamond hone on them.

Thanks for the advice tm. I hadn't considered
contacting WC.

MY BUSS CABLE WORN OUT ON MY Q2XL IN ABOUT 6 MONTHS TIME.
I REPLACED THE CABLE AND CABLE SLIDE WITH A SIMS TEFLON SLIDE. IT SEEMS TO BE AN IMPROVEMENT.

I've had a Sims teflon cable slide on my bow
from the beginning. No trouble with the cable,
just the serving at the cable end. I agree,
the teflon cable slide does reduce friction and
wear.
