Muskyman:
I know I could find info on the web but I trust people on here more than just any ol body.
So my question is how many strands of d97 for a bow of 45-50 lbs

You could safely use 8 strands of d97. You may have to adjust your serving thread and go a little thicker to better fit your arrow knocks.
Muskyman:
Figured I was using too much. My last one 14 strands.
Pappy:
I usually go with 10 or 12 with D97 but have done some 6 or 8 just fooling around they are safe enough but just a little skinny for my taste.

10-12 here as well. 4-6 strands can hold up but bites into the fingers pretty good if you don’t make the serving thick and the loops will need padded when that thing. But 12 seems to be a good happy point of performance and comfortable to shoot.
