Appreciate someone letting me know.

Thanks

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

AMO/ATA says 49", but most likely you'll prefer 48-48.5".

I always order a string 3.5" shorter than the bow. I do use a flemish string. I believe they stretch a bit more, but can also be adjusted more than an endless.

ken, I'm talking about a B-50 string, just to clarify. Don't know much about the FF strings.

If it was me, I would be ordering a 48" string and it wouldn't make a difference to me if the string was dacron or fast flight.

48" FF is what I shoot on mine...thread reminds me I need to get me one   :knothead:

a 49" will bring your brace rite in about 8" so with a 48" string you will probobly have to do a little twisting to get up to that 8" mark,  just saying.

I would start off with a 48" string and see how that worked. I always go by the rule of a 3" shorter string for longbows and a 4" shorter string for recurves.
