Title: slight limb twist?
Post by: anchorman on February 06, 2011, 12:34:00 AM
I was wondering if anyone has ever had a bow that's about 7 years old develop a little limb twist? What did you do to fix it? I have noticed here recently that sometimes the bottom string is not going into the string groove, at least not on every shot...Thanks

Try first to find the twist when the bow is unstrung. Once you do, use your hand to twist it the opposite way gently. Do that over and over for a day or so, see what happnes. If the twist is gentle enough it should come out.
