It is time for a new string. The potential for disaster is huge with a frayed or cut string. I have personally experienced the mayhem of a dry fire and pieces flew everywhere. You do not want that to happen up in a tree. It sure sucked in the living room.

If you had a grizzly or bighorn hunt tomorrow I would say run with it but you have time to get a new string. It may last another year or bust on the next shot. But it is not worth getting a chunk of limb or cam embedded in your face to save a few bucks.
