I keep mine on all bows. I have my rope cocker short enough to keep the strings off the bumpers. I put that on pulling the string back & inch or so, and adjust brace height when I go shoot.

On year round does not hurt the limbs and encourages you to practice.

Yeppers! Year round! Good excuse to go hunt something too! :lol:

I have always taken string off my exocet 200, still going strong after 14 years. Recently called Mike at excalibur and he told me this is not necessary. So I'm leaving strings on both exocet and bd440.
