Review on KESHES Replacement Bowstring: 12-16 Strands, 44-70 Inches - For Traditional & Recurve Bows! by Cedric Ziebart

Many of the older model bows (recurves specifically) will not accept the Fast-Flight strings. Having a string that fits into the string grooves on the limbs is essential. This string (mine was a 14 strand for a 50 lbs bow) is the exact string for this type of bow, e.g. Bear Kodiak Magnum, Bear Grizzly, or any of the older Bear bows. The quality is excellent. My string is still in the "stretching stage", but so far it has performed far better than the Flemish Twist I was using. I think most people using this type of string will find it easier to maintain the proper brace height sooner than with most Flemish strings. however this is just my experience and may not be true for everyone. There are a mixed opinions on the efficacy of the Flemish string over the Strand type Dacron B-50, but I have always preferred the B-50. Many times the "serving" portions of the string are better and the looped ends are almost always better as far as fit (again, string groove fit on older traditional bows). Much of the "plus or minus" of the Flemish string is contingent on the maker. Unless you have a really good string builder; the Dacron B-50 is generally more consistent in it's design. The product I ordered arrived before schedule and was exactly what I was looking for. I'm very satisfied. ------I wrote the forgoing response when I purchased my first bow string from you. I literally whore the first string out and decided to opt for a 16 strand string, as I felt the kinetic energy from the Kodiak Magnum might be too much for the 14 strand. Nontheless, the first string performed very well, given the abuse I gave it. I anticipate that the 16 strand will perform even better. Thanks for a very good product. N. Cummins
