Title: String installation
Post by: rubicon on September 13, 2010, 11:27:00 PM
I will apologize now as I know I have seen this before but was unable to find the answer using the search tool.  On a longbow, does the big loop or small loop of the FF string go on the top limb?

Big loop on the top limb, as it needs to slide down the limb when you unstring your bow.
