Hi all,
Ruth has very kindly given me a pre-loved 36lb 68" one-piece all wood "hunter" style recurve bow that I'm planning on using for barebow shooting, particularly field (thereby saving my beautiful Exfeel for more sterile conditions ).
I was made aware recently that Fastflight may be the most common target recurve, but they may not be suitable for all types of bow. As I don't want to see this bow damaged... what string would be the recommendation for this kind of bow?
So... Fastflight, Dacron, something else? Why? Why not?
I know someone's going to suggest making my own, but that's something I'm leaving for a later date.
