Been out of it for over a year

Haven't gone out to shoot in over a year. Haven't even looked at my bow for nine months. What should I check when I dust it off? And for future reference how do you store your bow(compound) for extended periods of time? Moved to LA and didn't think there was any ranges near me. Found a website for the Pasadena Roving Archers and I think I might check out the range this coming Sunday. I shoot a 2003 Hoyt Magnatec w/ 2000 limbs. In short "Hello"[:o)]

    Never stored it in direct sunlight and always hang them so as not to let the limbs develope a twist.

    1-Powder
    2-Patch
    3-Ball
    4-Remove the Rod
    5-Do Not Forget the Cap.

    when i bought my hoyt the dealer told me to store it with the limb bolts turned down a bit to alleviate the pressure on them

    My old man's backhand used to land,
    Hard on the side of my head.
    I just learned to stay out of his way.
    There's been streetfights, blue lights,
    Long nights with the world sittin' on my chest:
    It just showed me how much I could take.
    Hard times, bad luck.
    Sometimes, life sucks.
    That's all right, I'm ok.
    It ain't nothin' but another day.
