Title: help on recurve string
Post by: olde sarge on August 22, 2008, 04:32:00 PM

I am in need of some help in finding a string for a 50# bear kodiak magnum bow. I have just now decided to start shooting traditional again after over 40 years of shooting wheels and am uncertain but beleive the string which is long lost was a 48" 14 strand dacron. Any recommendations for a string maker would be a welcome thought as well. May be a long bow in the near future if this works out as well as I remember it working in my youth. Thank you.

Another vote for Bobby's G-Strings.

Thank you for your replies. Is the length and number of plys correct for a 52" AMO length?

Let Bobby know what bow you need the string for and he'll make sure you have the right material and # of strands.
