String length, Care and safety – Martin Archery Jaguar Take User Manual

STRING LENGTH
Your bow’s AMO (Archery Manufacturer and Merchant’s Organization) length is
marked on its lower limb. To achieve the correct brace height you will need to use a
bowstring of the same AMO length. (Example: An AMO 62” bow requires an AMO 62”
string). The actual length of your bowstring will be 3” shorter than its marked AMO
length.
CARE AND SAFETY
•
You should unstring your bow when it is not being used.
•
Never ‘dry-fire’ your bow.
This is shooting the bow without an arrow. A ‘dry-fire’ can severely damage your
bow.
•
Never draw, aim or shoot unless you are sure that line of fire is clear.
Remember: “Once an arrow is in flight, it cannot be recalled.”
•
Store your bow in a cool, dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to excessive
heat and moisture.
•
Occasionally waxing your bow with a quality furniture wax will help preserve its
finish.
When cared for in this manner, your bow will provide you with many years of
faithful service.
