Title: FF String & Glass Bow's (How many Strands)
Post by: Forwardhandle on March 08, 2018, 09:04:00 AM

Hi Fellas Im trying to work up the lightest string I safely can for Kennym's latest Gen. bow it should come in 50 lb. @31 I use Brownels Fast Flight Plus string ,if this was a self bow I wouldn't be asking ,but sense Im just starting to play with glass bows and the limb return speeds are faster, do you guys think I can safely get away with 8 strand ?

With F.F.plus, 12 strands at a minimum.
