How do you re-string a compound bow?

To re-string a compound bow, you must first get the bow limbs to bend. The easiest way (and the safest) is to place the bow, with the string above the bow (it will look like a smile) in what is called a "bow press". Once the bow is in the press, it is pushed down to bend the limbs ("compressed"), causing the string to go slack; the string is now removed from the cams and the new string is installed. De-compress the bow and remove it from the press.The bow press can be somewhat expensive to purchase, so it may be best to take the bow to an archery shop and have the string replaced there. Due to the amount of pressure required to bend the bow's limbs, as well as the need to keep them bent while changing the string, attempting to restring a compound bow without the proper equipment is definitely not recommended.


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.
