Introduction
This procedure requires a bit of physical strength, but can be done using the right leverage.
Precautions must be taken when removing the string and restringing your bow due to the amount of tension created. Make sure the bow is not facing you and that your hands are clear of the bow string when replacing the bow string.
Safety glasses are recommended.
