You can buy a bow string from stores that sell archery supplies, including Gander Mountain, Bass Pro, Cabelas, and maybe even Walmart. Or order on line: google "archery supplies"

I am sorry, I gave the bow away to my granddaughter. If you can give me a day or two I will ask her and get back you ASAP.

I wasn't happy with the strings it came with. Aquila strings were a great replacement.

Same thing happened to me on first try. Call Barnett and they will send you a new spool properlywound with new cord. Be sure to loop new replacement cord to rear of stock frame before cocking.

I tried to get a different string head as well. I have bought every conversion package at the big boxes. No luck. I even had a guy try machining on adapter. Didn't work either. What I want to put on it is a non spool feed with very heavy line. Then new 36V Lithium battery powered trimmer seems to have a single string and a shorter one as well.

Look up stringing a horsebow on yt. I use the step over method. It's hard as hell to string. You better be 1 strong mofo lol.

Hello Nancy, i have had the same problem, but the slit is there. You have to search/feel inside the bow, in the "fur" where the plastic tube is in. This slit in on both sides at the end of the bow. Succes!

Its not intended to ever be replaced, but I was able to with some craftyness. Look in the 1-star reviews for the pics I uploaded doing this. (1star because of this issue exactly, otherwise very nice bow).

If there is no AMO string length on the bow, then you can start with the tip to tip (unstrung) as a "pretty close" length. If the old string is intact, it will probably have stretched if it's not a fast-flight string, so go a 1/2" or so shorter. The AMO string will measure about 4" shorter than what the package says. I have a bunch of Bill Stewart recurves with the "multicam" wrinkle in them and found the string length needed when not listed is very close to the tip to tip measurement, keeping in mind the Stewart limbs have a more radical curve at the tip. Base height when strung should be around 6-3/4" to 7-1/2" ( distance from innermost section of grip to string). May want to go a bit long and then twist the string to get dialed in, string should have some twists anyway and if it is well waxed the twists tend to "set".

I had to have my string replaced and went to a archery shop that services Horton two weeks ago. Ten Point who bought Horton is planning on supporting the reverse draw crossbows that Horton sold. No warranty available since Horton went out of business. Check local arechery shops for horton support.

My rope broke the first week I had it. I would go to a fabric store and try to find something similar to it and staple it to the tree.Its just an Idea.

I took mine to a local sporting goods store who sells Barnett crossbows. The tech restrung it with the string they had in stock for only the price of the string. You need a bow press to accomplish the re-stringing function. He did it in 15 minutes.

I just got mine so i have not had to replace it.I did think about it though and would probably take it to a bow shop.I know Cabelas has cocking devices at their archery shop and cord looks like it would be the same.
