Default Bowtech allegiance string/cable question

Looking over my new bow last nite and I see that the serving around the cables by the cams (top and bottom) is looking a bit on the ragged side. Probably have a max of 100 shots on the bow and that is being generous in the estimate.

The serving has seperated in spots wide enough that I can see the two colors of the bow string (brown and green)

Is this normal?










If this is not acceptable what are my options?

It's not normal to happen on an end loop serving like that. The only thing I can think of is that there's a burr on the peg that cut the serving. Better take it off and check 'cause it'll be cutting the string next... Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it. Many strings don't even have serving there.

My Ally is doing it around the cam but not at the end loop. I would be a bit wary of that.

Thanks for the input folks.

Will have to make a trip out to the shop and see what the guy says, got a funny feeling that he will say "that is how it is supposed to look like"

Your loops should not separate like that. I shot over 300 shots a week last year out of my Ally and the end loops have only a little separation. There is not reason for the serving to separate there unlessthe loop is malfunctioning.
