Two ways of stringing a longbow without a stringer. - no, I do not twist the limbs, because I do not grab the limbs. - no, the limbs do not take damage if one works a little more than the other. The bow is stiff in the middle, so the limbs work independently anyway. - no, it's not dangerous. The limbs are not pointing towards my face. In short, stringing with these methods applies exactly the same stress and motions as when using a stringer. If you have questions for each method, please ask befo
