Hi,
Just purchased some strings for new club recurves (WNS Progresser) - we got burgled during lockdown. And am having trouble stringing as the upper loop is too small. Measured 8 strings and some are only 30mm, and rest between 35mm and 40mm.
The 30mm can't slide down the limb past the string groove and are getting serving damaged. Also having to keep the bh low.
I contact the supplier, Alternative, and their response was everything is fine and to string without sliding the loop down the limb - and that's how they usually string a bow. Really sad response from a company I've had great dealings with for 15 years.
Is this normal with Cartel strings? Anybody suggest another supplier?
Regards
