How often should I wax my bowstring? Is there anything else you can do to keep it in good shape? Thanks!

I have no idea what the recommended interval is but I usually wax mine at the start of season and at the end. More often on the longbow.

I wax my compound after the string starts to show frays. As soon as there is a fuzz on the string I wax it.
I watched a clip on some show that said the "correct way" to do it. They said to wax it, then use a piece of leather or denim to rub it in. That way you could get more friction with out burning yourself. Then to take a piece of fishing line/floss or and making 1 wrap around your string and pulling down shaving off the excess wax off the string.
