“Keeping string longer, stringing advice.”

★★★★☆

written by on 23/01/2012

To keep the string last longer, twist it few time until strands form up into uniied string. Don't over do it. Just until the all form up nice and tight.
String it to the bow and wax it!

This will shorten the string a bit, thus givin it slightly more power, and preventing the string hitting the cocking mechanism. Also if you are worried that it will fray from contacht with mechanism try wrapping around some thread like regular sowing thread neatly and snug ower the cocking mechanism's handles.

I'm not sure on the this one, but I wil try it tomorrow. Try wrapping two pieces teflon tape or something simmilar ower the central serving where string touches the xbow's body. It should prevent fray.

And finally onto stringing. This xbow can be troublesome to string. The way I usually string it, and I rarely have problems with this technique.

Put it onto the ground with the point pointed straight down. Put the string onto the left limb, then tilt it so that the left tip is resting on the ground, and then gently step onto the limb so it bends. After it bends sufficiently bend the right limb with your right hand and just slip the string loop over the limb. There! You strung this 80lbs baby.!

You can detach the cocking arms before each shot..therefore it wont smack against them..and youll get a longer powerstroke..
