Title: HELP WITH A STRING
Post by: melsdad on November 16, 2008, 12:09:00 PM
I have a Bear Kodiak Hunter 50# AMO 60" I have learned that I need a 56" string will   THIS (http://www.3riversarchery.com/Strings+Bow++B50+Flemish_c40_s232_p0_i1515X_product.html)  do the trick?

Yes, from what I've been told.  The string should be 4" shorter than the bow on a recurve and 3" for a longbow.

Or...

Get a real good one through one of TG sponsors

Excellent workmanship and ... cheaper than 3R.

Hmm...I thought 3Rivers was a sponsor.
You are on the right track, though. B-50 and about 4" shorter than the AMO length of the bow.
