Thanks for reading and for the comment...Hi Richard. Thanks for reading and for the comment! To answer your question, yes it is a true issue. Now, here's where you have to really read the blog post. The bow I was referring to in my example is a single-cam bow. The bow I was carrying in the picture you mentioned is a dual cam bow. Two different styles. Single-cam bows have a much stringer chance of the peep rotating or the string coming off the single wheel. <br /><br />While carrying the bow by the string can prematurely stretch it out over time, many of us change our string regularly or get the bow tweaked often to maintain premium efficiency.<br /><br />One other thing to mention is that in the article I said that carrying the bow in the hot California weather would aid in the stretching. That photo was taken and the article written when the weather was much cooler out here. <br /><br />Just because a lot of people doing it doesn't make it right. The main reason guys carry it like that is it is easier than carrying it by the grip. It's awkward that way. The string allows much more flexibility when you are walking.<br /><br />The main point behind the article is to take care of your gear, be cautious, and maintain your gear. I don't always follow the 'proper' way to do something, but I also tend to learn the hard way. So take the post as you will, but remember to always give your gear a once over before shooting. Good luck and I look forward to more comments!Albert Quackenbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05601926880788750927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646025171886008830.post-27479153102328409582013-12-09T15:40:11.025-08:002013-12-09T15:40:11.025-08:00Hi Al,

I am very new to the sport and in the process of getting my hunting license and your tips are helping me out and learning more. <br /><br /> Now for my question..I'm looking at the pic of you walking and carrying your bow or should I say bowstring and that took me back to your March 6th entry of carrying your Bow Properly...What Gives???? LOL Kidding but I would like to know if this is a true issue or not...I do see many people holding the bow in many different ways does it in fact cause peep twist and the such? if it is the case why do so many pro's or hunting show hosts carry this way?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17457472127719055994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646025171886008830.post-24756026428365699192013-12-03T15:38:37.720-08:002013-12-03T15:38:37.720-08:00Thanks, Randy.
