Can I restring my own compound bow?
The only compound bows that can be restrung by hand are older models with a “teardrop” shaped attachment for the string. These attachment points have two grooves in order to hold two strings at once, allowing you to use the old string to keep the bow in position while you attach the new one.
Is a bow press worth it?
Yes, definitely a good purchase provided you intend doing your own tuning etc. And I suggest you buy a good one. Portable presses have their place when you’re out hunting, but in my opinion are too time consuming to do tuning work etc.
Do you need a wrist guard with a compound bow?

How much does it cost to have a compound bow restrung?

What happens when you dry fire a compound bow?
Bow technicians describe dry-fires as explosions. Most dry-firings damage the bow, especially compound bows,because they have more moving parts than recurves and longbows. But with any bow, the higher its draw weight, the greater its potential for damage.

Is 70 lb draw too much?
Some shooters are capable of shooting 70, 80 or 90lbs, but most adult males shoot between 60 and 70lbs. Today’s bows are extremely efficient and 40lb compound bows are more than capable of harvesting many big game animals. For whitetail deer hunting anything above 40 lbs is fine.
What should my draw length be?
To measure your draw length, stand with your back to a wall stretching your arms out against the wall. Measure the distance from the end of your middle finger to the end of your other middle finger, basically the length of both arms, hands and chest. This measurement, minus 15 then divided by 2, is your draw length.
Can you adjust draw length on a compound bow?
Adjustable cams allow the archer to adjust his or her draw length with the use of an hexagonal wrench without, in most cases, pressing the compound bow. Adjustable compound bow cams allow archers to adjust anywhere from 3 inches up to 13 inches depending on the compound bow.

How long does it take to string a bow?
I have been shooting for years and it only takes me 1-2 minutes, it takes my friends anywhere from 5-10 minutes. It will often take longer if you’re stringing an unfamiliar bow or using a new stringer or string.
