Use 8125. I'm using 8125 on all my bows. Even an old bear black bear bow. It's 40# and I'm using 4strands padded to 20. Here's some numbers for 8125; 3strands should be used for draw weights under 37#, 4 should be used for draw weights 37-49#, 6 strands should be used for draw weights between 49# and 73#, 8 strands for 74-97. Pad to 20-21 for the older bows or 15-16 for the newer ones. Now these guide lines are the SAFEST strand counts. They exert the least amount of stress on the bow. Don't use more or less than these guide lines if you go with 8125. These are safe for ALL bows and they are quieter, faster, and produce less handshock than any dacron string. However, your bow will need to be retuned for the new string because of the extra energy available that used to go into making noise and vibration. The bow might be louder at first because it is out of tune, but when it is tuned it should be several times quieter. I personally think that these are EASIER on the bow than dacron because they put the same amount of stress on the tips, less stress on the limbs, and less stress on the riser. I think that using skinny padded 8125 strings will prevent stress cracks in a bows limbs and riser in the long run as well as preventing delaminations.
