I have a Jennings forked ligtening. The string came off s cable attached to
one of the cams. My wife took it to a local archery place. They said they
could not fix it because it was so old that parts are not available. (It
was bought new in the mid 80's).

I was just wanting to fix it to target shoot with my son. Is this thing
only good now for the trash? Can it not be fixed?

What part do they need?

I had an old bow re-cabled for $35, maybe the shop is just incompetent?
Maybe they'd just prefer to sell you a new bow?
