I am going to change the string on my bow with my bosses bow press. I have never attempted this before so I am looking for some tips. Is it customary to change the cables also? It's a bowtech assassin. Tips of the trade?

Unfortunately I am a little north of you guys. Somewhere around 3 hrs. I was actually going to have a shop do it this weekend as I will be in San Diego Friday Saturday and Sunday but all of the shops I called we're going to be closed.

I don't think the Bow and Arrow shop will be closed on Fri or Sat I would be worth your time to have it done by a professional then you know every thing will be right
Still waiting. By the time I made it to the bow and arrow shop they were closed. I'm still trying to figure out what to do. A zone is now open and I really don't want to re sight in my bow. But the string is about 5 years old and needs to be changed.
Well finally bought one online and got it changed at Bass Pro. Big mistake. huge mess. If you take your bow there you should pray hard. Only one guy there (i believe his name was Jim) knows what he is doing. Other than using the press to install the string I had to re-do everything at home.
I would have loved to go to the Bow N arrow shop! I have heard nothing but good things from them. In fact I have sent friends there from San Diego and I have never personally been to the shop. The only reason I went to BPS is because we went to Big Bear for the weekend and it was on the way (I live in Ventura). If I didn't live three hours away from San Diego I would have taken my bow to a reputable shop in a heart beat. I dont have a good shop within an hour drive from me.
