Don't know how it is all going to compare just yet but I need to  thank   Bob Morrison  for giving us a heads up on the NEW D-10 material from BCY.

 

We are currently building some strings for Bob and us to test as I type. The big, big, big, advantage here, after just getting off the phone with Ray from BCY over D-97 is creep. This stuff does not move. It is made with 100% "SK78" Dyneema. I will be receiving some preliminary test results from them on how it preformed in tests against D-97 and some other similiar materials.

We are especially interested in this material for our new SBD "Ultra" HP 6strand strings for bows of less than 53#s

If it is better that D-97 I'm sure we will have a winner. As always we are trying to learn and improve upon what we do everyday.


Thanks and God Bless, Pierre and Jean-Pierre

Very interesting.  I wonder how it compares to the "Ultra Cam" I've been hearing so much about lately.

Tim,  

Don't really know but to improve upon D-97 and make it 20% stronger than SK75 (D-97), better abrasion resistance and have less creep is a home run in my book.  

We will see...very interesting indeed.

God Bless,   Pierre.

Looks interesting,how is the diameter per strand compared to D97?

I wonder if they have an SK90 string material in the works. SK78 has been around for about 10 years or so and they developed SK90 to improve on it like they did SK78 for SK75. The stuff is used for rigging on sailboats/yachts.

This is driving me nuts!      Strings are getting better way faster than I can wear them out.  Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Thats ok fletcher,
                 just send me all your old ones you don't want anymore.  

Are the SBD Ultra 6str made with D-10 now or still D-97.

thanks, Ken

Ken,
We are still going through some testing at this point and we want to make sure it does what it is supposed to.  Still using D-97.

John,
Same diameter as D-97.

I'll keep you posted if and when we start to use the D-10 material.  

Right now it is showing some promise.  

God Bless,   Pierre

Let us know when and if you switch to D-10.  I love the 6 strand you made me, and no creep would be great! You weren't kidding about the Silent in SBD!

Hey Mark,

All SBD High Performance strings are now being built with the "New" BCY D-10 material (100% SK78 Dyneema) which is quieter, has less creep and is 20% stronger than SK75(DynaFLIGHT 97)...

We have done quite a bit of testing prior to changing over all of our material to the new D-10.

We along with several individual testers, A&H Archery, and Morrison Archery  have found the D-10 to most importantly be quieter, have a lot less creep,  and maintain the performance of D-97 and in some cases exceed the performance of D-97.

We are now convinced that it is the material to build high performance strings with.

We are continually striving to improve our product for our customers.

Thanks and God Bless, Pierre and Jean-Pierre

Hey Pierre, I got my strings last week and wow are they quiet! This D 10 material is great! Its almost like shooting a different bow and I haven't even spent time to properly tune them yet.
             Thanks again!

I have 6 SBD'S already....can I sign up as a product tester Pierre???? I'm sure they will be another awesome product from SBD!

Chris,

We try.  Thanks man, that's our goal.  Quieter and no creep.  Increased performance...gravy...    Homerun in my book.


Brian,

PM sent.  We try to avoid W.VA testers.     Just a joke...Got relatives in W.VA.  Hate to admit.

God Bless,   Pierre and Jean-Pierre
