Well, they say there's no dumb question.  Let's test that one.  I ordered a new string.  Three Tree Strings actually.  On a side note they have great customer service.  So, I guessed my string length the first time.  Ordered the string, received it, tried to string up the bow and it felt short.  I measured it against my old string and found it to be one inch short.  In case it matters it was B50, 12 strand, 3 bundle.  So, I re-order a new string, this time 56", adding that one short inch.  Well, I received it today, strung up the bow and my brace height is now an inch less.  So, both strings same length, one old and one new, different brace heights.  The old one giving me the longer brace height.  Out of curiosity I shot the new string with a shorter brace height and it shoots just fine.  So, do I order another string at 55"?  Or do I stick with 56"?  Thanks fella's!

New strings can be subject to a break in period, or stretching, depending on material. Shoot in for a while and keep an eye on the brace height, and adjust aas needed. Im pretty sure you can twist a flemish enough to get close...

That's what I thought too.  But when I started really thinking about it, the new string is longer.  As it stretches the brace height will just get less.  Right?  Am I thinking this through correctly?

Sounds right to me...I thought it was reversed, my apologies. Any chance you could twist it enough to get it right?

I tried that.  Maybe I need to twist it more.  How much can I twist a string?  Any thoughts?  Thanks Ishi.

How long is your bow? Recurve or longbow? You can twist a string quite a bit as long as it does not start kinking you should be ok.

Twist it up to your brace height is all you have to do

I'm stringing a recurve that I beleive is 60".  I'd have to double check.  I contacted 3 Tree Strings and asked if they had the 56"er still lyin' around.  In the mean time I'll twist the new string to see is I can make up the difference.  Thanks again guys, and gals.
