hey guys, new on this site, but not to primitive archery. i got started about 8 or 9 years ago with a 40# internature longbow and eager to hunt. kind of got out of it all when my uncle died, but in the past year and a half, i've had a total resurgence and gotten into hunting and archery big time. i even took my first deer this past fall, but it was with a compound.
anyways, i got an old bear recurve last summer for free from a friend, and this past winter break i picked both my primitive bows up and decided i really wanna get back into it practicig with them both for fun and eventually maybe even hunting. heck, last spring i shot a 4 inch group with my longbow at 17 yards just "reaction shooting" (not sure what you call it).
so the bear i think could make a better hunting bow than the internature. its 50# as 28'' the problem is, it came without a string! i looked at the specs and it says 60'' length bow. my question is, how do i figure out what length string i need for this bow?
