Dave recommends a 16 strand string so I made up a 12 strand D97 and padded the loops to 16 and my tip shoots well and is really quiet. I'm sure others with more experience than me will also chime in.

Jerry, I shot my Silvertip with one of my Lefties-R-Us 8 strand strings. I pad the loops to 16, no problems at all.

I shoot mine with an SBD string works great!

I tried a SBD 6 strand on mine and did not like it. I felt a lot of vibration.

I'm shooting one of Allen's 8 strand strings and my Schafer shoots great.

I've shot my buddy's with 8strand SBD....I hate to admit it, but I shoot it as good as my Bear....the skinny string makes a lot of difference to me with that bow.

SBD for me.

It seems most bows and most shooters really like smaller strand count strings. I haven't found a bow yet that doesn't.

10 strand Ultra-Cam loops padded to 16 strands quiet and well mannered!

I shoot mine with an SBD 8 strand and I found the bow shoots a little faster and is quieter, which is a nice bonus.

My tip is in need of a new string. Where do you get the SBD strings and how are they on nock fit.

Thanks, Jason

I make an eight strand padded to 16 in Ultra-Cam for mine, quiet and no vibration issues.

Do yourself a favor and put a 8 strand SBD or some other maker on it you will love it. It turned my schafer into a completly different bow and wow what a speed increase it shot and felt soooo much better. Widow

Google SBD bowstrings.

Sbd strings are the way to go with a Tip.Mine was better.Don't know how to explain it but in the hand-drawing and release just felt better.Knock was good too.

I use the SBD 10 strand on all my ff recurves, best string I have ever used.

That's what I had on mine as well. Loved it.

had a 12 strand D97 on mine as well as a SBD that was 8 or 10 i think. the best string for mine though was a TS-1 that was 10 or 12 strands. all the loops were padded to 16 or 18.

I think the SBD strings are second to no other.
