    Directions on how to take the bow string off and coil it around the handle to carry and pack it easier:
    see pictures #5, 6 & 7.
    The string is tied on the tip of the bow with a special slip knot. Loosen the slip knot and slip it towards  the handle of the bow until the slip knot is on or near the leather wrap. See pictures 5 and 6
    Hold the string and rotate or turn the bow to coil the string around the handle.
    Tighten the slip knot to secure it. See picture 7
    What is premium top-grain leather?
    When leather is processed, the hide is thick so they split it in layers like an onion. The best leather is the TOP or the first layer thereby called top-grain leather.  Premium leather means that it is processed in a way that the coating and coloring of the leather is done in such a way that it resists being scratched and also is easy to clean. Non-premium leathers may be scratched easily. If you run your fingernails on a leather that is not premium grade you can visibly see the scratch caused by your fingernail.
