Brace height on a Phoenix

Tried to attach a picture of a newly installed,brand new,string on my Phoenix but,it won't let me,the board attachment quota has been reached.The brace height doesn't look right to me.The string is about an inch off the ss bumpers and about 1/2 inch from the top line,I hope that makes sense.I have t...

Re: Phoenix string came off when fired.

I'm thinking that maybe I didn't fully seat the arrow. :oops:

Phoenix string came off when fired.

I bought and installed a new string from Danny,on my Phoenix recently and have since shot it about 50 times.Today the string came flying off after having shot it maybe 20 times.It didn't sound good but,everything seems to be intact and the string looks fine.Has anyone ever had this experience and do...

Re: New string ??

There's nothing to unravel,there are 0 twists in the string.I was under the impression that a string should have some twist to it. Yes? No?

New string ??

Got a new string for my Phoenix from Danny and it is so short that I was unable to put any twists in it at all when I put it on.I've installed it and had it cocked for 2 days hoping to stretch it but,it is still a good 1" off of the RED bumpers with 0 twists in the string.Advice please?

Re: Frayed serving

The serving is actually coming apart.The thread is broken and has started to unravel.Everything else is intact.

Frayed serving

Having just restrung my Phoenix,I noticed that the serving is fraying on one of the loops that knocks onto the tips of the crossbow limbs.I've ordered a new one from Danny but,am I safe to shoot it in the meantime?

Phoenix brace height

I guess I'm asking for brace height advise. I have a Phoenix that's several years old.It also has the S-5 bumpers installed.There are 2 lines on top of the mainframe about 1" apart.My question is,where should the string lie in respect to the lines?Right now,the string lays directly across the u...
