I have that same bow, thats what they changed for 2014. The cams tear up the string so I got a string with a warenty right before my factory sting was about to break.

They changed the cams or changed to a different kind of string for 2014?  Is this a known problem for Charger's before 2014?

changed the cam, yes i went on some archery forums and a lot of people had that problem. I heard about hoyt giving the 2014 cams to people when it happened in the first month. My friend had this problem and just bought a new bow after he went through 4 strings in two months

Thanks.

I too looked at some archery discussion boards and noticed the same thing.  I'm going to give my new string a try and see what happens.  If it starts to get frayed or break then I'll take it back to the store and see if I can get new cams.  The reason I got a "good bow" was so that I wouldn't have to worry about something like a string snapping (at least very often).  If the store or Hoyt won't replace the cams at no cost then I guess I would have to consider paying for new ones myself.

Sounds like a derail.

Change the string, better change the cable also.
