I leave mine strung most of the time. If it is going to be a while before I shoot it I unstring it. I have noticed some fistmile change due to string stretching if I leave it strung a long time.
I use the Selway recurve stringer when stringing/unstringing the bow. My Osage 1 piece I unstring when I am not shooting it as it had the glass seperate from the lamination at the tip a few years ago shooting in the summer heat when my string broke.

mostly unstrung, but do not hesitate to leave them strung if I am shooting regularly.

Always unstring selfbows.
