Title: Another string tracker question
Post by: Kopper1013 on July 27, 2017, 03:31:00 PM
Just wonder what lbs line people are using #17 or #30???

Has anyone noticed at trajectory difference between the two?

I'm pretty sure one will be on my bow this year just trying to figure out which direction to go, also any hints on how you guys use them and tips that make everything easy you've figured out would be welcome information...
Thanks all

I have shot both and saw only a VERY minor difference in how the two weights shot.  Both will do well for you but remember that the 30# line has 1/2 the capacity of the 17#.  

Here is a video I put together on set up of the units.  If you pay attention to nothing else in the video, watch the portion that  explains how to prepare the spool for the first shot. Do not shoot the first few shots out to remove that line. It will only hurt your confidence in a great unit.

They will not mess your shots up at realistic ranges. Great tool

Yep, follow Jerry's advice! He is a string tracker guru!!!! I have only used the 17# line, so I can't give an opinion on which is better.
