I had a couple threads on here about tuning my long bow. Through trial and error, and a lot of good advice from trad gang I had it shooting great. Once I had good arrow flight my shooting improved in leaps and bounds.... until today. I shot maby 100 arrows through it last night, and was feeling real good about it. So today I decided to keep it going and had shot about 20 times when twang!!. On release I was startled and confused. my arrow hit right on target, but my string was flat against the riser with one of the loops destroyed. It was a stock bear string (18 strand two bundle) and one of the bundles is completely severed. The crazy thing is that two days ago I waxed the hell out of it and even took my loops off to get some wax on them, didn't notice any fraying, or cuts. So, question is why did this happen? My brace height was set at 7 5/8". Guessing I probably shot between 2000, and 4000 arrows, but hard to say. So I am going to order a new string from Ten Ring Strings, and hopefully rush order so I can get it in time to get set up for turkey season. Is there any info I should know before ordering? (String material, padded loops)
