    I have had my 08 Ally for a year now, I have shot it roughly 60-80 shots a week for a year now.Some weeks not at all, some more, but on average 60-80 a week..... I keep the string waxed and I have not noticed any nicks or any stretch at all, it's a winner's choice, everything still lines up the way it did a year ago. Can I get through this season without changing the string if I maintain the same shooting regiment for the rest of this year? Or can I expect some serious stretch coming in the string's second yearbefore the season or during the season?

    Your string should be fully stretched by now, and shouldn't do so any more. You shouldn't have any trouble at all getting through this season, and probably next as well.

    Just periodically check A2A length and Brace Height to make sure its still in spec. I don't see any problems arising.

    I would say you could get through this season easily. Mine last for two seasons.
