A little FF Flemish test
« on: March 02, 2015, 02:29:31 pm »
A little tid bit:

Last night I made up two flemish strings for a new self bow. One was a 12 strand D97 and the other a 12 strand D10. Both have 8" servings and no silencers. The D10 is noticeably more quiet. Ill still use either at the drop of a hat, but.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

I've used D97, but what's D10?

Same company. I haven't researched the variances.

BCY doesn't even make it anymore. But 3-Ripoffs had this snip-it on their website.

"100% SK78 Dyneema. DynaFlight 10 (commonly called D10) is 20% stronger than BCY DynaFLIGHT 97 (D97) string material with the lowest amount of creep."

Chad from BYC was at Kalamazoo a couple of weeks ago and was selling D 55 for $5.00 a spool. Bought 3 different colors but haven't made a string up yet.

He said the spools colors didn't come out right.  Don't matter to me at $5.00 a spool.  Picked up a grey, yellow and a green.
