new limbs in, string material advice needed
« on: January 19, 2021, 01:02:35 PM »
Hi all,

Just got the new uukha Altai 2021 limbs in. (for my Black Wolf 17 inches carbon riser)  :jumper: :jumper: :jumper: :jumper:

Do you have any advice for the string material ?

It's for bowhunting (mainly european wild boar)  so silence is the key for me ... but i want a string material that can give me the best of these excellent (but expensive) limbs.

Thank you all for any advice and take care.

Thank you for your answer & your time ROSCO,

However, Uukha is more prone to recommend stuff for target shooting and my question is more bowhunting related.

I used to shoot astro but my sppol is finished now ...

Idea anyone ?

Best regards,

M

Once I use up my BCY-X supply, since it is no longer made, will switch to either BCY Mercury or X-99, Leaning towards X-99 due to vectran helping to stop creep, important in our hot summers on southeast coast USA. You may due well with Mercury for your needs.

BCY string material is good material.

I´ve had nothing but good luck with bearpaw strings and materials. I have their flemish jig and FF string material, if opting for a ready made string go for the bodnik whisper string.
You can only miss in two directions, vertically or horizontaly
