Thanks Allen.  Currently shooting a 6 strand D-97 string.  Sounds like a 10 strand Fury would be very close to same diameter.

I just got a mountain muffler string made with fury yesterday and really like it. Made my bow really quiet and didn't lose any speed.  I have been shooting rhino for the last year from Rick Barbe and really like it also. It hasn't stretched at all and I have had it strung for 8 months.

So there's nothing above the top puff at all?

You don't need it really. I think on a standard recurve he might put the puff higher into the curve.

Custom made for the for the Covert - different for other recurves. Many bowyers do not want anything additional in the string grooves. Most of the slap on the shot comes from point where the string leaves the limb toward the center.

Just wondering, is all that silencer stuff necessary on that type string? I am a less is better type person. So far the Rhino string Alan made for my LB is doing fine with little wiskers.

Longbows aren't susceptible to string slap on the tips so the outer mufflers would serve no purpose. The wools silencers on the string are only about 20 to 25 grains when trimmed - hardly excessive.

What do you mean by when the string leaves the limb towards center?

Do you make flemish? Website?

Starting at the limb nock going toward the center of the string, there is the point where the string is no longer in contact with the limb.

String materials with Vectran tend to be quieter.
A little more info on fury direct from brownell.  

Fury is. SK 90.   So the debate of BCY "x" vs brownell fury.  Both are sk90.  But x has vectran which should make it more stable.  However it is showing that fury(which is actually closer to 8190) is being just as stable even in high temps.   I'm thinking the fact that fury is such a small diameter even smaller the. X has something to do with it.

So can anybody who's shot both the X and the Fury notice any real difference. I've made all my strings from BCY-X for the last year or so. 18-20 strands and pad the loops with B-50, and it's pretty quiet on my widow.  Im happy with the X, just wondering if I need to give the Fury a shot (no pun intended).

I'm going to reply on the "string weight" thread I started, so I don't highjack this one.

After hearing all of the buzz about Fury I ordered in a Fury string from Allen a couple of months back.  Absolutely the best looking and made string that I have ever seen in my 35 years of traditional bow shooting.  I passed my Bear T/D around to a couple of guys who build strings at a shoot and they were murmuring about how they thought he might have gotten his loops finished so well. He asked what nocks I shot and then served the string to fit it perfectly.... and all of this at a great price point.

I shot the string for a couple of weeks and was impressed.  That particular bow had been tuned to shoot a 2018 like a dart with a FF string set up the exact same way.  When I put the Fury string on a 2018 bare shaft then showed weak.  I had to trim about 3/4" off the shaft to stiffen it back up. I like the material, really like the customer service and workmanship and recently ordered in five more Fury strings to fit various bows.

Allen recently came to the S.T.A.R. shoot and was very obliging to the guys in answering questions about strings and about Fury in particular. I do know he had the guys lined up placing orders for Fury strings!
