Instructions: Please review the entire item description and be sure you understand the details. Make sure your bow maker says you can use D97 or other "Fast Flight-type" string materials. Figure out what string length you need. Listings are for ACTUAL STRING LENGTH, not bow length. Make your Bow Type, Length, and Color selections. If you have any other requests or instructions, please message me! String Details VERY IMPORTANT: The listings are for ACTUAL STRING LENGTH, not bow length. Order the correct length! The Classic Flemish Twist string. What you'll get in this listing is a classic two-bundle, two-color string with two loops, made from a combination of Black and your choice of four (4) bright and fluorescent colors. If you're interested in a full-custom string with a choice of 21 colors, check out my listing for Custom Flemish Twist Strings, or my listing for Premium Strings with additional configuration options. Strand Count: By default strings will be made from 14 strands of D97. At your request I can change the strand count (10, 12, 14, or 16 strands) for no additional charge. My personal recommendations for a balance of strong, fast, and good arrow fitment are 12 or 14 strands. BCY recommends 14 or 16 strands, but in my experience 16 strands often results in a borderline-too tight arrow fit. Speed difference between 10 and 16 strands is only 1-2fps on average. Loop Sizes: My strings come with two loops, usually measuring about 1" to 1-1/4" for long bows, and about 1-1/2" to 1-3/4" for recurves. (There might be some variance.) The larger of the two loops is intended to be the top loop. If you need or want smaller or larger loops, please let me know. The splices are nicely tapered with the tag-ends trimmed and cleaned up. Serving: By default, the center serving will measure ~7" served around center (3-1/2" above and below center). If you would prefer something different — longer (up to 10") or shorter serving, or adjusted up or down, please let me know. All bows have slightly different arrow nocking locations. (If you required high-end serving, please check out my Premium Custom String listing, where I offer BCY 62XS serving as an option.) If you would like to make modifications to the strand count, loop sizes, or serving length or location, please contact me before buying or right after placing your order. I will always prefer to spend a little extra time making sure your string is perfectly how you want it the first time, rather than having to do returns, exchanges, or refunds. String Length VERY IMPORTANT: The listings are for ACTUAL STRING LENGTH, not bow length. Order the correct length! Review the following information about finding the proper string length for your bow, and order the length you require. Options are given for several popular Recurve and Long Bow lengths. If you need another length, please select "Other (Please Specify)" and make sure you leave your desired length in the checkout instructions, or send me a message. Option 1: Measure your old string. This is the best and easiest way to get the right length. String your bow to the recommended/preferred brace height. Remove it from the bow without letting it untwist. Loop one end around a nail or something, and measure the string while you pull it completely taut. Write down this measurement. When you select a length, round up to the nearest inch. (Ex: String measures 58 3/4", order a 59" string.) If your old string is Dacron, order a string up to 1" longer than the old string. The new string will not stretch as much. Option 2: Select a string length 3" shorter than your marked bow length. If your bow has a length measurement written on it (ex: 64" AMO), generally speaking you'll want a string that is 3" shorter than the bow (61" actual string length). The AMO Standard specified that the AMO bow length was 3 inches longer than the string length at optimal brace height. If your bow does not say AMO, the instructions are the same. The AMO "standard" is actually no longer officially in use, although it is still common to reference, and used by some bow makers unofficially. An older recommendation was that long bows needed a string 3" shorter than the bow, and recurves needed a string 4" shorter than the bow. I would urge you to stick to the 3" recommendation. This recommendation used to be made for Dacron/Polyester strings. D97 will not stretch nearly as much, and in many cases a 4" shorter string will be too short. A string that is slightly long can be shortened up considerably just by twisting it more — but you can't make a short string longer. Option 3: Measure your bow yourself, and subtract 3". If your bow does not have a length written on it somewhere, and you don't have an old string for it, you can measure it yourself. Measure along the belly (the side pointed toward you while holding it) of the bow from one nock to the other. Do your best to follow any curvature of the bow's limbs, because this does count in the bow's "length." (You don't have to follow the pistol grip shape.) Write down this length. You'll want a string that is 3" shorter than this "nock-to-nock" length. If the length you get is a fraction of an inch, round up. DynaFLIGHT 97 DynaFLIGHT 97 is a modern, high-strength bow string material made by BCY Fibers. It's made from a material called Dyneema SK75. It's very durable. It will not stretch much when the bow is strung or drawn, and it should not "creep" much over time. No more constant brace height adjustments! Maybe you've heard of or read about "Fast Flight-type" strings. D97 falls in this category. This is different from older bow string materials, usually made from polyester ("Dacron," Brownell B50, BCY B55). These older materials are weaker and tended to stretch and creep a lot. It makes for a little different feel while drawing and shooting your bow. But ask any archer who has made the switch, and most will tell you they'll never switch back. While most modern "traditional" recurve and long bows are built to tolerate these newer string materials, some makers/manufacturers specify to use Dacron/B50 only. (Vintage bows especially.) Check your manual, or ask your manufacturer or bow maker if it is acceptable to use D97 or other "Fast Flight-type" string materials. I am not liable for any bow damage that might result from failing to follow your bow maker's recommendations. Usually, if your bow has tip overlays/reinforced tips, it should be fine — and really, it is mostly just very thin strings that risk damaging your bow. I myself make and shoot all-wood long bows, and I have used D97 and similar materials for years without any issues, and no damage to my bows. This is on a variety of woods, with and without tip overlays. I've talked to many other bow makers who have done the same. But again: Follow your bow maker's recommendations. NOTE: D97 is currently the only bow string material that I use and sell. Colors This listing is for a combination of Black plus the listed options. If you are interested in more custom color combinations, please see my other listings. By default I will serve the string with Black serving. If you would like matched serving (where applicable) or another color serving, please add it to the checkout instructions or message me. If I run out of the color you would like, I will message you letting you know, and ask whether you'd like to choose other colors or to wait. Usually restocks don't take more than a few days. Shipping I offer the following shipping options: FREE Economy Shipping. Packaging is minimalistic—just a an envelope with a details/instruction sheet. In most cases no unnecessary plastic packaging. Doing what I can to reduce the amount of single-use plastics I use! Unfortunately there is no tracking information for Free Economy Shipping items. Standard US First Class Mail estimates apply. Please disregard eBay shipping estimates, as these are often overly optimistic. Note: eBay shipping estimates are estimates only, and are not guarantees! $3.99 USPS Ground Advantage. Formerly USPS First Class Package mail. Comes with tracking information and sent in more robust packaging. USPS estimates 2-5 delivery days to most US locations. Standard handling time still applies. $8.49 USPS Priority Mail. Expidited shipping option. Comes with tracking information, usually mailed in a Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelope. USPS estimates 1-3 delivery days to most US locations. Standard handling time still applies, though in many cases I do my best to ship Priority Mail orders first. Handling Time: My standard handling time is Two (2) Business Days. Most of the time strings are completed and mailed same-day as your order, or the next, but please allow two full business days for your order to be filled. In some cases I will have to extend handling time temporarily—ex: out of town, waiting on materials to restock, back-log of orders. I do my best to update my listings with those changes, as necessary, and try to let customers know when there will be a longer wait. Return Policy: Until I have reason to change this policy, as long as strings are returned un-used and un-damaged, I will continue to offer hassle-free returns, exchanges, or refunds. I reserve the right to change this policy, and to refuse returns that do not meet certain requirements. About Me I am a hobby bow-maker, and I make strings for some extra cash. I have been making primitive bows since 2012, and have always made my own strings for those bows. This isn't my full-time job, just something I do on the side. Although it a part of a part of a larger self-employment strategy, I'm also not looking to make it my full time job. I stand by my strings, and believe them to be of high quality, competitive with the strings made by professional string makers who do this kind of work day in and day out. But know that there could be some variance. Most strings will be completed within a day or two of receiving the order, and sent out the day it's finished or the next day. Many times it is done same day! If you have any problems, please let me know! I will always do my best to work with you and sort out any issues that you might have, and I hold myself to a standard of excellent customer service. All I ask is for some understanding and patience. I am just a regular guy trying to make some extra dough, and gain a little bit of freedom through self-employment. Keep an eye on my listings, as I plan to expand my offerings beyond bow strings in the near future. Thank you so much for checking out my listings!
