My nephew was shooting this afternoon and on his warm up pull somehow accidently hit the trigger and dry fired his bow. Yeah string exploded....so we are leaving to Colorado Saturday. Does any know of a archery store that can string a quest g5 bow, or where we can find a store that has bow strings?? We will be going north thru alburquerque then up to durango then off to cortez co. Any stores that can help my nephew out? Please advise...
 
There are several places in Albuquerque. Nice archery, the archery shop, hit or miss archery shop. Also Taos has a shop as well. Slight detour but if they have the string it's worth it. I would call each place and see if they have a string on hand. They will want to check your cams also. Hopefully they are not missed up. One other place to call is bowdacious archery shop in espanola. They are a newer shop who don't have traditional hours but may be able to help you out.
 
Thanks for the info. Looks like we will be making tons of phone calls today. Really appreciate the help!
 
Hope you find that bow string and good luck on your hunt. I would recommend buying an extra string for emergency use in the future.
 
I would advise to never pull a bow back without an arrow in it, especially with a release for this exact reason. Just some advise that was passed on to me. I think it's just a good practice to rule on the side of caution. Good luck with that string and hunt. Hope it didn't do any limb damage.
 
^^^^ Couldn't agree more. I had it happen about 10 years ago and ever since then i warm up with tension bands. Hope you can get what you need before saturday and goodluck on your hunt!

I had a bow emergency on Saturday. I needed a new string. Lbor day weekend is tough. I ended up calling Impact archery in Las Vegas. They were awesome. It was a 3 hour drive, but 2 hours after getting there they had made me a new string, and tuned my bow up. All for under $50. Great service, I highly reccomend them.
