Title: Hoyt Buffalo string length
Post by: reddogge on July 17, 2013, 05:00:00 PM
I have a mystery. I took off my short limbs and put on my heavier medium limbs to tune some hunting arrows and the baggie marked "62" Buffalo" was empty. I'm sure the string got borrowed and was on my Titan III riser, the only other FF 62" bow in the house but it was too short. It measured 58". I measured my other Buffalo string and it measures 57" for a 60" bow so I'm thinking the longer string should measure 59" to give me an 8" brace.

Does anyone have the measurement of a 62" Buffalo string?

Thanks DW. I'll have to make one up since I have no clue where my original 59" string went.
