RE: truth eating my string
Mine would eat the serving by the bottom cam. I found that where thecam track and draw module track transitioned did not line up very well. This caused the cable to pinch and the serving to wear out prematurely. I replaced it with a different draw module (which by luck lined up better). Didn't have as much of a problem after that. Doesn't sound like yours is in the same location. Don't know why yours would be fraying there. Make sure you wax your string a lot. You could also upgrade to a better aftermarket string. There are a lot of quality string makers you can check out on www.archerytalk.com.

I also have the new Truth 2 and my serving was wearing out at the cam like Western Outdoors was. I took it to my local pro shop where I bought it and he called Fred Bear and talked to them. They were awesome they sent me Brand new cable's and told him how to adjust the module to not prematurely were the serving. Apparently this has been pretty common. But the adjustment fixed it and I have had no problems since. Also I will say that The factory strings and cables on the Truth 2 are the best you can buy in my opinion they are Winner's Choice. Hope that helps a little.

I had the same problem with my Truth bow, but I switched to Bucknasty Strings and cables, and the problem went bye-bye. I thought they corrected that on Truth 2. I will say, Fred Bear went out of their way to make everything right.

RE: truth eating my string
I was not able to watch him do it. I had to drop the bow and leave it with him one day while I was at work. When I picked it up he showed me what he did but I am afraid I cannot accurately tell you how he did it since I did not watch him do it!! I am a hands on kind of guy. Sorry!! I am going back to the bow shop sometime tommorrow and I will try to get more info on how he did it and I will repost that way I don't tell you wrong. All I know is that it fixed the problem. I will repost as soon as I get the details.
