i heard that you can keep them strung up for a month or two months with little draw weight loss. is this true?
-
I keep my Horn bow strung for a month at a time and have noticed no drop in weight. I did the same with my glass bows also.
-
they say that humidity will also drop the weight. i live in montana so i am worried a little about the humidity any way to protect them from that?
-
Is your bow glass or horn? My Horn bow is water buffalo and sinew and I'd bet sure money that the humidity you have doesen't come close to what I put up with in Florida. If it's glass you can leave it strung outside in the rain and not worry unless you have it covered in leather.
