    I'm new to this forum and would like some help. I had my strings done about 3 months ago only shot it maybe 200 times but recently started to notice on the cam that the string started to split and fray. How bad do you guys think it is? Thanks in advance for the help..

    I sure wouldn't keep shooting the bow like that. I say take it back to wherever you had the strings put on.

    Yes, stop shooting it and get it fixed.. Unless of course you don't like your bow that much.

    As a string builder I can tell you that the serving is toast and you should stop shooting it and get it fixed by the place that you bought them from

    Whoa that doesn't look good! Is it a name brand string or something a private shop built? I'd assume someone like Americas best bowstring would replace it for you, mine came with a two year warranty
    Oh BTW love the colors!!! I have the same ones

    I would be surprised if they didn't take care of you. I warranty mine for a year so I would think they would

    Yup Crackers is a great guy and will get it fixed up. I'd double check that cam as well and make sure there is no burr our rough spot there.
