I went perusing the pawnshops today and found a Hoyt FastFlite compound bow. I have been thinking of getting into bow hunting lately and this one was in pretty good shape and already had many extras on it so i purchased it. What I need to know, besides everything about compound bows and maintenance, is how do i take the string off safely. I have bowhunted before and used to be a pretty good shot when I was a kid but I always used a recurve or a longbow. This is my first Compound. Any help or information is greatly appreciated
