Aye. It's absolutely horrible to always keep a bow strung. From what I remember, bows warp a lot if they're left strung (especially if the bow isn't stored in a completely dry and cool environment), causing them to lose a lot of tension.

However, today, some bows are made extremely well, so it's less of a big deal. The only reason why you'd leave bows strung is if you're shooting it every day.

Actually.

I think I'm going with she does have it strung.

Mostly because they [i]are[/i] walking into unknown territory and might run into something that would very much like to eat them. Stringing the bow would just take unnecessary and unneeded amount of time.

She'd probably unstring it or whatever when they stop for the night, of course, but when they're traveling...yeah. Probably will be ready to shoot something in the face.
