Straightened up a rw hunter and a bear grizzly by stringing it up, then grabbing the string and limb, then twisting it the opposite direction, beyond center. Left it strung, hanging horizontally, and every time I went by it, I'd pick it up and twist some more, pull it a couple of times and hang it back up. Took a couple of weeks to get the limb to stay straight, but it hasn't moved back since.
When you twist the without holding the string, the string will come off and that bow will jump all over you.
