I have a 60" Lynx recurve and the string measures 56 1/4".  I guess you'd be good with a string 54 1/4" actual string length.

Cheers, Pat.

For my recurves I get AMO(bow length) minus 4 inches, for my longbow AMO minus 3

I don't know on that particular bow, but if it's marked correctly according to AMO it will get a 55" string (string measured under a 100# load).  The catch is lots of bows are not marked correctly according to AMO.
