Phillip, I leave my stick bows strung up for several days when I put a new string on them to help speed up the stretch of them. It doesn't take but a few seconds to break down and string a stick bow so I take them down when I finish shooting for the day. Never know when it might get entirely too warm where they are stored. Some say you can leave the new composite sticks strung indefinitely, but why take a chance. This is just what I do...GOOD LUCK with the new bow
