I don't know if it is even called a string. It is a real tough cord or something. Mine broke and I don't know what to ask for. I never got an answer. It only showed my question. Then ask was this answer useful? So I said No.

depending on what kind of bow you have, you release different ways. if you have a re curve or long bow, you hold the string with 3 fingers, your index above the knock, and middle and ring below. you pull the string back towards your ear, aim and slowly straighten your fingers, allowing the string to slip off. its important not to jerk the string, because it throws off your shot. if you have a compound bow, chances are you are using a release, which is attached to your wrist and u simply pull a trigger to release the string.

How do you re-string a compound bow?
To re-string a compound bow, you must first get the bow limbs to bend. The easiest way (and the safest) is to place the bow, with the string above the bow (it will look like a smile) in what is called a "bow press". Once the bow is in the press, it is pushed down to bend the limbs ("compressed"), causing the string to go slack; the string is now removed from the cams and the new string is installed. De-compress the bow and remove it from the press.The bow press can be somewhat expensive to purchase, so it may be best to take the bow to an archery shop and have the string replaced there. Due to the amount of pressure required to bend the bow's limbs, as well as the need to keep them bent while changing the string, attempting to restring a compound bow without the proper equipment is definitely not recommended.
