    strung or unstrung

    iv heard mixed reports about storing a recurve....some ppl tell me take it down after every shoot others say leave her strung if youre shootin her a lot cuz thats when you damage or twist the limbs is when your stringin em i shoot at least 2 times a week and as of right now im leavin it strung should i rethink my tactics?
    what do yall do?

      Leave it strung... Hang it from the string w/ 2 nails or hooks. Use a cut off end of an old arrow to slide over the nail to protect the string.

        Either way you want. I have done it both ways. Just always use a stringer.

            I keep my bows up here strung. The bows I keep in Tx get unstrung at the end of my trip - I shoot them about once a month.

              It makes no difference! Just do not store your bow staning up (strung or unstrung) and do not store in anywhere where it can get very hot when it is strung.

                Both of my recurve bows have been stored strung, laying horizontally in a bow rack, for the last 15 months.

                  I store mine unstrung mainly because my Dad said to. I have on a few occasions kept one strung for 2 or 3 days while hunting or during a weekend 3-D shoot...Van

                    does age make a difference my buddy has a 30 year old long bow he leaves strung?
