It doesn't hurt to back off the limbs, but it is not necessary!:cool:Quote:

I back em' all the way off.
New limbs lay flat. Limbs that are kept under full pre-load all year, are "rocking chairs" when I take them off.
Stored in a good location the limbs don't have to be backed off. Heck, I've got bows going on 11 years old and they've never been backed off.
sounds like its not gonna hurt ,thanks for the replys !:)
