    Default how long does a string last
    How often do you guys change your strings. Mine is starting to wear but do not want to change it before the upcoming season.

    Thanks

    I change strings and cables once a year if I still have the bow.

    It depends on your up keep , waxing it & how many times it is shot. you should replace it or at least I do evry 1000 shots or there about, but I build my own strings & cables so it does not cost me really anything. just keep a good eye on it and watch for wearing .

    Every 1000 shots? I'd be replacing my string twice a month! LOL
