Title: Shes lookin purdy
Post by: Hoosierarcher88 on August 01, 2020, 11:13:04 AM
Well i got the firefly in and shes a beauty and a beast. Figured while i try to figure out what i am going to do with her i might as well twist her up a fresh string. It may not be for everyone but i actually kind of like the look of the solid florescent green string against the purpleheart riser.

Flo green beats pink or purple for me.  But to each his/her own.  Nice stick.  Congratulations on the bow.

I must say compared to all of my previous bows she definitely prefers a much stiffer spine. Time to buy some new arrows

Been playing around with some different string combos. Do believe i finally narrowed it down to the string and brace height combo she likes the best. Padded out skinny fast flight and my fmj's with 300 grain tuffheads seem to be the winning combo and hit with some real authority

They look like some very tidy strings  :thumbsup: I do like the centre one with the green trace. Are you using cat whisker silencers?

Center one with green trace is a 14 strand flemish. 1 bundle is 7 strand of black the other bundle is 5 strands black with 2 strands of green/black spec. The padding on the end loops is solid florescent green b55. I use yarn for my silencers

I've been using a 14 strand I definitely think it's a good all round string size. Mine are D97 though.
