If a bow is made of wood I can see good reason not to leave it strung for long periods, but what if it's made of carbon, foam, plastic or any other man made material?
Has anyone any evidence that leaving such limbs strung will affect their performance or alter their structure in some way? Bow manufacturers should have some ideas, I imagine.
Surprisingly, in all of the archery books I have read, the various forums I peruse, and even the instructions that come with bows I have never come across any discussion on this topic.
There does exist on YouTube a short video on the subject but it is inconclusive.
