congrats on the gem!

I recently started making my own b50 flemish strings. Might want to consider it  :cool:

I like the B50, just because they tend to be quieter. If you are worried about getting every last fps out of the bow, FF would be the way to go.

Enjoy

i think im going with the 3 bundle b50 flemish now to find one. i would not know where to start on making my own. ill buy one i bought one for my bearcat of a guy on the auction site so maybe ill get in touch with him for this bow. im not worried about how fast but quiet is another thing.

PM me your email and I'll shoot you the info I used to get started. I know I can get prettier strings from the pros, but there is something pretty cool about doing your own...

just ordered a b50 3 bundle hunter green brown tan with a black serving flemish string for her. i have one on my recurve and i like it. so ill give one a try on the longbow. maybe after i wear this one out ill get a fandancy fast flight but for now i think the b50 will do just fine.
