String length 58" Tall tines 58" Shrew

[Steelhead]

Ordering some strings for my brother.Cant get a hold of him to have him measure his strings on these bows.

His Tall tines is 58 inch model.I thought those were taking a 55 inch string?My 60 incher takes a 57".

His Super Shrew  is a 58 inch longbow.I figured 55" on that but am not positive.

Thanks

I just measured the strimg on my 58" Super Shrew and the string is 56".

Yes on my TT 60" I needed a longer string than usual,but if you misure the bow is a little bit longer that a classic 60"AMO too.

Very good.

Thanks for the responses and the PM Pierre!

He will be all set up.

Eric, 58" TT should take 55" string.  He uses AMO minus 3".

Thanks Steve!I appreciate the response.That confirms what Pierre told me.I have no doubt I am getting the right length string from your guys info.An excellant string maker and TT afficionado if thier ever was one.

I was surprised a Super Shrew longbow took a 56 inch string for a 58 inch bow!I was gonna order a 55 incher.Might look a little funny with a 8-9 inch brace hieght and not shoot as well to boot

Seems like I shot a 57 inch string on my 60 incher.Been awhile though and old timers disease is starting to creep on me in little ways.So I am not sure about what length I had.Of course thier is a bit of play in a flemish twist that allows some leeway fortunatly.Its nice to have the perfect length though with about 1 twist per inch in my experience and others.

Shoot straight!
