Many aftermarket string and cable(s) sets are only “close” on the lengths and diameters. This can drastically slow down, affect the performance, and significantly reduce the ease of tuning your bow. Use of aftermarket string and cable sets, and failure of that product resulting in further damage, will void the lifetime warranty of your bow. How often should I change my strings and cables? String and cable life is susceptible to a couple different factors. The first would be how much you shoot your bow, and second would be how well you take care of your strings. We recommend you regularly wax your string with a quality silicone based string wax.
Most strings will last thousands of shots. As a pre-season practice, inspect your string for cuts, abrasions and fuzziness. These can all be signs that your string and cable(s) may need to be replaced. When in doubt, take your bow to your local Authorized Dealer and they can assist you in getting new Bowtech string and cable(s) on your bow. Where is the center shot of my bow? This can be set by measuring from the back of the riser to the arrow and then from the front of the riser to the arrow.

This is merely a starting point. General Questions Where are Bowtech bows made?

The IBO speed advertised is achieved with a 70lb bow with a 350 grain arrow. The IBO measurement allows the flexibility of using different poundage bows as long as the arrow weight is 5 grains per pound of draw weight. Because of this a 50lb bow paired with a 250 grain arrow (50×5=250) will shoot the same speed as a 70lb bow paired with a 350 grain arrow (70×5=350). Can I replace the cams on my BT-X to change from a BT-X 31″ to a BT-X 28″?
