Who makes a good non-fast flight string?

Also, can/should I consider a skinny string with padded loops like I do with fast flight?

My bow is only 50# at 28"
I Corinthians 9 24-25
...run in such a way so as to obtain the prize!

A.S.

We can fix you right up with a B55 string. I would suggest a 12 or 14 strand string for your 50# bow.

Check out our wesbite below for details.

We have always offered options for both types of strings as well as the option of a continuos loop or flemish twist type string.  Please feel free to call us with your questions and to check out our website.

"Who makes a good non-fast flight string?"

Endless or flemish?  Either is pretty simple.

"Also, can/should I consider a skinny string with padded loops like I do with fast flight?"

I wouldn't suggest it.  Low strand count strings will stretch more, creep more, and be less durable.  Dacron will be the worst.  12-15 strands will work best.  No reason to pad the loops.

I have dealt with Chad at Champion Bow Strings on many occasions and he has always made me a great string.

Question for string makers-there may be an obvious answer to this, but once a dacron string quits stretching, how is that different than a ff string that stretches very little at the beginning and has padded loops?
Thanks,

I've never known of dacron to quit strething completely...but even it it did, it retains a lot of elasticity.  Unstring the bow, it retracts and has to settle back in when re-strung.  The elasticity contributes to hand shock, and in some cases noise.

Dacron is much less durable, and harder to get a proper nock fit with heavy-weight bows (string is too fat) and/or small arrow nocks.  There's also a performance difference--usually not huge, but it's there.

Thanks for the good word Bjorn and DB!
