Title: Flemish twist string for Asian/ Mongolian bows
Post by: Si on April 17, 2021, 11:31:45 AM
Like many of you, I make my own strings. I have a Mongolian style bow and it has a large-loop endless-loop string. I never see these large-loop strings done in Flemish twist. Have any of you made a twist string for this type of bow? Thanks

I've got the stuff to make a string,but still haven't tried yet.

I do have a White Wolf,Wind Warrior. I think that is like the bow you are talking about. It came with a flemish twist from the guy that made it. He has big tips on his bows too. That bow is very quiet and smooth and it has big loops on it.

Thanks, I am going to make one and see what happens. I rebuilt one due to a crack in the riser and I think it is an ALI brand?
