Remember that with a traditional bow the weight will change depending upon what your draw length is. Bow weight will change approximately ±1-2 pounds for every inch from a bow's rated draw length. So a bow rated 30# @ 28" bow is roughly a 28# @ 27". Draw weight is marked at the nearest 5# increment to actual weight, (2#'s under and 3#'s over). This is an industry wide standard. A bow stringer is recommended for stringing any recurve bow or longbow. Stringing a bow without a bow stringer, or stringing it backwards will void a bow's warranty.

Never rest the bow on the lower tip for extended periods of time. Never dry fire the bow (shooting without an arrow).
