Strand Count for 100# ?

Physics dictates the number of strings has an effect. It may be small enough not to notice but is definitely a factor. ;)

Sure enough. But, the amount of mass difference is negligible.

Just lay a few more strands under the serving until it feels comfortable. 18 strand strings will rob your cast like crazy!

In my (humble) opinion, I don't think 18 strands is by any means a rope. Brownell themselves recommend 18 - 20 strands for a general string (not a warbow string) for fast flight plus. But I don't flight shoot or anything...

I dunno then. I do know that the EWBS guys use 14 as a "general rule" and that's right up to 150# bows. As far as I'm concerned, the thinner the string the more performance (logically) but I've never tested the theory. Either way, I wouldn't go above 12 for 100# unless you're doing it for comfort over safety.
