You could also try adhesive backed cork.  The Black Bear has a fair amount of deflex so 7.5-8.5 inches especially with 64" limbs is not out of the ordinary.  A quality low stretch string will make the bow.  Lot of folks shoot shoddy strings and wonder, but it's like putting cheap tires on a sports car.  Enjoy!
