What string for me?
«

I have a Treadway Black Forest dragonfly bow and the string is Mia....nice bow and what kind of string do I need, 64 long 50 lbs @30 inched.
If I go back 3 inches I need a 61 inch string but what kind, fast flight? Dacron 50?
Thanks for any help

I just got a Black Forest earlier this year. Mike makes his bows to accept whatever string you want to use. My personal preference is BCY-X, 18-20 strands, loops padded with B-55 in Flemish to 24 strands. Halo or 62XS serving sized to fit the type nock you use. I'll have to check to be sure, but I think Mike's bows are marked correctly according to AMO, so you would need a 61" string.

I have used Fury and BCY X on my Treadway's with no problems. You will need a 61" string.

Would be hard to beat a Fury string from 10 Rings!

You could always contact the bowyer and ask for his suggestion.
