Best Answer

The exact best method depends on a lot of unstated factors, such as the length and strength of the string, and whether there are any tools to hand. Also, do the children want to break the string roughly in the middle, so as to have two roughly equal pieces, or does it not matter where the string breaks?

Each pulling one end is unlikely to be the best method. One or both children might fall over backwards when the string breaks, or the weaker child might be drawn towards the stronger one. A better option would be for one child to stand on the middle of the string and press downwards, while the other holds one end of the string in each hand and pulls upwards. If that doesn't work, both children could stand with one foot on the middle of the string and both could pull the ends upwards simultaneously.

What happens if the string on a compound bow breaks?

well that depends. if you are holding your bow and it breaks then you could get hurt and your bow could possibly break. if it breaks when your not holding it, then it might damage your bow. if it doesn't damage your bow, you can take it to be restrung or do it yourself. be careful of dry-releasing (pulling back the string without an arrow on it) because you can break the string and/or break your bow.
