Your sting is dry. Wax is your friend.

Keep it waxed... it will surely prolong the life.....

I have been useing the LimbSaver wax

 

[Fl_SavageShooter]

make sure you apply it liberally and rub it with a small piece of leather or something so it heats up and melts into the string strands and is not just topically applied.

Your always going to get "hairs" on a string, no matter the string. As stated, wax it and rub it in. Don't wax the served areas. If you get a larger "hair" it is a completely broken strand and the string should be replaced. If this happens mid season you can burn the end to keep it from further slipping. Just remember heat rises and strings hate fire. Only do this if necessary and be careful.
