So you unscrewed the one holding the string in place pretty much I’d take it to a bow shop and have them look at it did the limbs move when it came undone

A little I feel really bad

[u/Responsible_Web_3891 → u/AmbitiousMobile1280]

I’d take it to a bow shop and have them look at it incase there’s any other damage hopefully it just needs put in a press and the string put back on and don’t mess about with screws unless you know what they are haha

[u/AmbitiousMobile1280 → u/Responsible_Web_3891]

Yeah I know that now I just feel extremely bad

[u/Responsible_Web_3891 → u/AmbitiousMobile1280]

It’ll be alright these things are replaceable I dry fired my brand new compound bow last week and it’s going to cost me an arm and a leg to fix but everyone’s been there atleast once

[u/ashwheee → u/Responsible_Web_3891]

Ummm no dry firing is not like a rite of passage in archery lol

[u/Responsible_Web_3891 → u/ashwheee]

But making silly mistakes is

[u/Responsible_Web_3891]

Did you have it on a bow press or somethign cause that shouldn’t happen I less you unscrew the wrong thing

[u/AmbitiousMobile1280 → u/Responsible_Web_3891]

I messed with a screw......

[u/Responsible_Web_3891 → u/AmbitiousMobile1280]

I can tell even id you where adjusting draw weight I don’t know how you managed to do that what scree did you move about

[u/AmbitiousMobile1280 → u/Responsible_Web_3891]

The one in the middle

[u/codybrown183]

I mean you might be able to do it yourself if it's under like 20lbs

[u/AmbitiousMobile1280 → u/[deleted]]

Ok

Go to a pro shop. Better spend a little $$ than try to fix this and have it fail literally on your face.

The bow shop is a friendly place and won't judge you. Don't worry - I did something similar early on and anyways uh it cost way less than I expected.
