What you have, had, worked, didn't work, etc... Looking for this guy. I tried sharpening this one, the numbers in the middle say 62" I don't know the last line though.
Sounds right. I have another pic with no flash. It's darker, but it looks like thats what it says. Any Ideas about strings there Schultzy? Just for fun shooting. Nothing more.
Keewl. So it's not like finding strings for a compound? Any new string will work? That's so easy. Why can't everything be like that.
And that's what I like. Hell, if I could get away with it, I would have everything simple. And old car (pre computer-runs-everything), House (log cabin)... i like simple things. Why does everything have to be difficult now days? I just don't get it...
Cuz if it goes wrong , it costs more to get it sorted by a specialist in that trade and they try to make things so you cannot work on them yourself anymore unless you buy hundreds of dollars worth of tools to do the job . Thats why i've gone Trad .
NO, you don't want to to use anything other than a Dacron B-50 string. A 59" string should be about right but just ask for a 62" AMO string. Oh and the X next to the number 45 means add an extra pound to the AMO weight, XX two extra pounds. So, that bow is 46# @ 28". If there was an X in front of the 45 it would be 44# @ 28".
I'm not saying your wrong Jeff but there's a pile of old bows out there that people have no Idea on what they are. My takedown recurve that I've hunted with the last 13 years Is not a well known bow. Heck, no ones ever heard of It when I've mentioned It's name but yet I've never had a problem when getting strings for It. I think It really boils down to how fancy of a string you want for your bow. Your plain jane string should work on just about anything as long as It's the right length.
