I'm going on my 4th season with the same bow string that came with the bow new. I'm not having any issues with it, but just trying to think ahead of what types of catastrophic equip problems I could encounter in the backcountry, as I'll be out for the entire early archery elk hunt in a drop camp with my Peaches Ridges bull tag. I'm taking an extra release, peep sight, wax, cam screws, etc. I can't take an entire extra bow and my knowledge on bow repair is minimal, so trying to make sure everything is as good to go ahead of time as possible. So, how often do most of you replace your bow string (compound)?
