Bow storeage/ usage in winter?

[6.5 shooter]

Now that the season is over and I am shooting at the indoor range here in town I was wondering about storage of the bow?
Should/could I leave my bow outside in the garage so it stays more or less at a constant temperature or should I bring the bow back and forth to the house, range, house and have the bow go through 3 temp changes between the house, outside, and the range?

There are no lock ups at the range or I would leave the bow there, Normally my bows goes from the outdoor range to the house but just wondered IF the rapid temp changes would affect the bow at all?

May seem like a silly question but have to ask.

I shoot a Jennings Sonic XLR a 19 year old bow and expose it to all temp changes, if it is extremely cold and in a warm building no problems but when it sweats it is dry before cold use.

I would say keep it in house...if in garge you will wanna thaw it out each time for shooting anyway...grips are cold ...lol and that would be a bigger temp change also ...IMHO

I agree with the keeping it in the house! I just wondered about the quick temperature changes to the limbs etc. You know hot, cold, hot etc. Having said that new bows should be fine but still kinda worry about my recurve. Maybe will just give them 10 minutes or so to warm up before I shoot.

Thanks for the advice guy's!

..Most of the shooters here in winter leagues store their bows indoors room temp...then the bow is in the vehicle ...and from the vehicle straight into the lanes ...so cold exposer is minimal...
By time by time the shooter catches up on the social BS that takes 10 min easy...and the bow is then room temp...lol

I wouldnt worry about it too much...
although the nut behind the string is usually cold and takes some work...lol

I keep mine stacked on top of my field point target at the end of the fall. 100 shots a night at 6 yards is just as good as 100 at 50 yards as far as maintaining muscles and shooting form.
