No, you can keep it strung.
Do not leave it hanging in the sun.
Do not stand in corner, hang it up.

Leave it strung.  All of mine are, regardless of how often they get shot.

Hang it up by the string, without a quiver on it so it hangs straight...

I leave it strung and yes, use a stringer! I always look away so I am certain not to catch it in the eye. I confess I have even worn safety glasses when stringing up a new bow for the first time!
