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.




If I understand correctly from the pictures, the part that's broken is where

the string attaches to the cable?



Here's some links that will hopefully get you in the right direction.

Yes, the metal T is basically an "I" . It is what holds one end of the bow string. The bow string has a look on the end and the loop goes around the T
