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?

The cam (I think that is the round black plastic on each end of the bow) has a black cable stretched around it. At the end of this cable molded into the cable is a piece of metal that looks like a "T". On one of these cables the T had broke. This t is what each end of the shooting string connected to.

I have a picture, but do not have acess to a picture hosting site currently.

Sounds like a standard part.
