I've used this string on longbows, recurves and reflex-deflex bows. The serving tends to stretch a bit on the kinds of bows where it impacts with the limbs (Recurves, & reflex-deflex). The string doesn't stand up to fraying very well, either so if a string starts to fray, it goes pretty quickly. On the other hand it is relatively durable and doesn't fray easily. For long bows, it's an excellent product and will last the longest. Despite the serving wear issue, it's lasted longer on my recurve than the string that originally came with it. Overall a decent product.

I had real issues with this string, the bow is a 60" Kodiak Hunter, so I got a 56" string, when I strung it up, the brace height was under 6 inches!I twisted it up to 7, but it would not stay there, which definitely hindered any kind of accuracy,since the nock point kept getting moved.I bought a 60" AMO string from a competitor,and it braced up at 7.5 inches without twisting it, and it shoots perfect. I have thought about returning the string, but the shipping costs are prohibitive of the effort. Why don't you use the AMO Rating for string length? It would save a lot of confusion for those who don't know the 4 inch rule. Kevin

              Comments about Double Loop B-50 Dacron Endless Bow String:

              I just got into bow making. I made our. Kids and their two cousins long bows for christmas.. I thought abput learning to make my own strings but time was running out. So I found these inexpensive strings on 3 rivers and decided to give them a try. Not bad at all. Came in the correct lengths I requested and fit all 4 bows that were 2 dif sizes. I can't say I would use them on my recurve but for youth bows of wood or glass they seem to be the ticket. And they got to me quickly as well...

                I ordered about 10 of these for my vintage bows and they appear as good as the old ones I used to buy in the 60s-70s. They do stretch and you do have to break them in. I leave the bow strung fo a week or so, reseting the brace before a shooting session. The nock serving fits tight and I am thinking about switching from my FF modern longbow strings to these. For me, they feel good and perform well.

                  a while back my oldest daughter came to me and asked if i would teach her archery. i was a little worried as fathers get about buying the kids something new that they might not stick with. however i thought i would start her off on something simple just to get her started and if it was something she would take to, then i would maybe get her a better set up. well i started putting together the pieces. had a beginers youth bow and some arrows, all i needed was a string. 3 rivers archery was the holy grail for what i was looking for. so i was able to give her a nice little set and 3RA made the final piece. so maybe next christmas i'll be getting her a new/better set up, and 3RA will be the place i look first, thanks and happy holidays, mike

                    The Double Loop B-50 Dacron Endless Bowstring was just the right fit to bring my vintage Damon Howatt Ventura Recurve back to life! Strong, light and just the right stretch. Ordering was simple and delivery was in just a few days. I will be purchasing this and other products like it from 3-Rivers in the future!
