Title: D97 Strings?
Post by: Gator1 on May 04, 2007, 12:28:00 PM
I recently bought an 18 Strand Padded Loop D97 String for a new bow.

It seems like the string is stretching just a little???

I didn't think this Low Stretch Material would do that??

They stretch a little for the first few times you shoot then get pretty stable.

yup...even the "no stretch" strings stretch for a day or two; just depends on if the guy "pre-stretched" it as well...

Now if you have it twisted up way too tight, it will also behave very strangely...and keep stretching as well...

Thanks for you replies, they seem a little harder on the fingers than good old Dacron...
