Longbows have their own rhythm—calmer, steadier, and deeply traditional—and the Traditional Only® B55 longbow Flemish twist bow string is built to move in step with it. Designed for archers who value feel as much as function, this string delivers quiet confidence with every draw and release.
Made from 16 strands of BCY B55 string material, in colors of tan and outdoor green,it offers the forgiving stretch that longbows thrive on. That elasticity helps reduce stress on the bow, making it especially well suited for older longbows or bows without reinforced tips, while still providing smooth energy transfer and dependable performance.
A black nylon center serving adds durability and consistent nock fit, rounding out a classic Flemish twist design that looks right, shoots right, and treats your bow with respect. A traditional choice, done the right way.
Order by actual bow string length (not bow length) of 55", 56", 57", 58", 59", 60", 61", 62", 63" or 64".
Remember, for a proper brace height, a longbow will normally use a bow string 3" shorter than the marked bow length. So, if your bow is a longbow with an AMO marked 60", a 57" bow string will most likely be what you need.
