Fury Strands

[REM]

How many strands of Fury is recommended for a 50 pound longbow?

[Sirius Black]

Ask Allen Shafer (Ten Ring Strings) a sponsor here. He uses Fury for his FF strings now.

Just got my Fury string from Allen for my 50lb Whip.
18 strands

REM, which tire is best for a chevy?  haha.


It is really whatever you want.  How many would be strong enough for #50?  I'd bet 6 would hold it as good as 20, it would just stretch more, etc.

There are 2 very important components of a bowstring if you ask me, ample thickness in the loops and the proper serving fit.  

Other than that, it is personal preference.  

If I were you, I'd go with whatever number would make your serving work.  I'd bet around 18 would be good, but don't know what serving you have.

I use 20-22 ..going from 20-22 on same bow only saw 1-2 fps loss at most

[A.S.]

I am using 18 strands of Fury (with padding in the loops) on most of my strings. This gives the best combination of performance and stability (no creep) that I have found.

A couple strands in either direction will make little to no difference.
