Greetings all;
Just had a string fail (break) at the loop end while attached to the nock on the prod. Startled the mess of me, since this was the first time to experience such a thing.
I have read on the forum that I can file down the nock to make it more rounded and smooth,and maybe add some leather around the nock to protect the string against the metal prod. Giving this a try.
Leaving the bow string on the crossbow while not in use for periods at a time cause this to happen? Should I remove the strings from the prods ( 2 bows ) while not in use? Thanks in advance for any input.

P.S. One should always examine the bow for wear before shooting!!!!
