Thanks for the comments guys.  As far as the ff string, I don't know.  I will be making a 3 lay flemish string for it.  I hope it performs well.
I used to have a Hatfield the same poundage and I got rid of it and had to use a 45 lb Ben Pearson.  Hope it shoots as good as the Hatfield.  I already have about 2 dozen POC that I hade for the Hatfield.  Can't wait to get started!  thanks guys   del <><

Ditch the fast flight string. I have an old guy bring vintage bows often to my house to refinish. He buys them at backwoods auctions. I can tell the ones that were shot with fast flight strings, broken nocks and split limbs are the norm.

Not to steal the thread from you but I was was out today and hit a couple yard sales. I bought a Carhart vest and Woolrich wool coat which I bought for my son to use whan the weather gets cold. I got both items for a total of $4.00! I haven't found any archery or hunting equipment this summer at the yard sales but today I feel like I hit a jack pot.
