Damage Bow String!! What to do?
« on: September 18, 2013, 08:32:03 PM »
So I was out in the great Pacific Northwest bush this last weekend trying to track down a blacktail. Came to a spot that I figured I'd take a breather at and drink some water and crouched down did what i wanted to do and as i got up my tomahawk, yes tomahawk cause when i say bush I mean it and i had been a bear on my camera lately, anyways my tomahawk nick my bow string. I looked it over quickly and all seemed well so i carried on with my hunt. Now a few days later i noticed a good sized strand poking out and half of another nicked and its the strands around my peep sight which is a three string peep. Should I worry about this now or can it wait till the break between early and late season? Preferably I'd like to wait cause if i have to get a new string I'm not gonna be able to make it East this weekendbut if i have to I have to. String is cheaper than a bow after all. Any help would be appreciated.

Alright then fix it it is. Now I've done some reading on bow strings and almost every time its Vaportrail and Winners Choice that is brought up. What is your guys preference?

Right now, if I were you I'd take whatever is fastest.  Probably Winners Choice.
