If the bow is performing well, I wouldn't give it a second thought. Just buy another set of whiskers when needed and keep on shooting.

as the whiskers age they will get brittle and "snap" off at the shot.

It's not the bow it's the whiskers!

I've had the same issue a number of times with various bows. Nothing wrong...install new one's and continue on.

I shoot a skinny SBD string and mine would slide around. I started installing them "in" the string...problem solved. I bet it would work for you also.
