Keep it waxed,  I shoot 1-200 a day,  at least 5 days a week.  I change my strings yearly.

Around a year, if you are shooting that much. If it starts to show a lot of ware signs on it. Then get a new one, its not worth having a string break and hurt you, or a hunt.

The better you take care of it the longer it will last but changing all the strings every other year is a good habit.
