I‘ve got a Hoyt Horizon riser that I bought as a kit second hand.
I’ve had several sets of limbs on it using the string that came with the kit. (68 inch bow)
On buying a new string (well known brand from an Archery shop) I’ve found it about an inch longer than the original string.
63 1/2 on the old string is just right but the new one at 64 1/2 I can’t get a bracing height much more than 7 inches without tying the string in knots. Does this sound right?
If I get another string am I just liable to encounter the same problem as they mostly seem to come in bow lengths rather than actual string length? I’m quite happy to pay for a custom string if necessary but where do you get them?
