Fast Flight on warbow

<< < (2/7) > >>

Moen:
Ok, Mark. So 10-12 strands will be enough for my 130#? I try to go over 300m/328yrd. And i`m very close. Shoot 290-295m with 18 strands B-50. 30" barrel shaped arrow with 1"x1/2" feather. The Norwegian flight-record is 356m/389yrd.

TS-1?

ratty:
i use 12 strands on my 133# bow    D75

adb:
I like the fatter string, because it feels better on my fingers... less pinch. How could a string that is "too strong for a bow, be hard on it?" Better than the string failing, and the potential for the bow to break.

Marc St Louis:
No I used the old FF, break strength 90#.  You will need to lay a few extra strands in at the nocking point so your arrow nock fits
