Title: String Materials
Post by: Tree Ghost on June 13, 2007, 10:00:00 AM
I am going to start making my own strings again and am wondering what the difference is between Fast Flight Plus and TS-1.  My Schafer is set up for Fast Flight.  Can either be used?

The term "Fast Flight" has come to be used generically as any low-stretch string material.  If your bow is "Fast Flight Compatible" then any of the newer generation materials will work. The original Fast Flight material is no longer made by Brownell.  I've tried the FF+, TS-1+, D97, Ultracam and I think one or two others.  I prefer TS-1+.

Thanks for the info, I kind of thought that was the case but didn't know for sure.
