Title: Bow String Materials.
Post by: WoodsmanRanger on May 03, 2023, 12:37:02 am

Does anyone know of any natural fibre bowstrings or natural fibres to make bow strings for a 50 lb recurve bow?
Thank you for your time.
Keith.

Linen, hemp, silk will all do the job.
There are other fibres, the hard part is getting good quality thread.
