This handcrafted Flemish twist bowstring is made from trusted B55 (Dacron) material, making it an excellent replacement for traditional longbows, especially those with wood risers or older limbs not rated for modern low-stretch materials. B55 provides just enough give to reduce limb stress, while still offering a smooth, quiet shot—perfect for both new archers and seasoned longbow enthusiasts. Built using the Flemish twist method, this string has a classic, braided look and delivers consistent performance with a touch of traditional style. The two-bundle construction gives it the nostalgic appearance many archers prefer, while still ensuring long-term durability and reliability. Whether you're practicing at the range or heading out for a hunt, you'll appreciate the feel and control this string provides. Orders are placed using the Actual String Length. Actual string length refers to the tip-to-tip measurement of the string when unstrung. AMO (Archery Manufacturers Organization) length refers to the overall length of the bow when unstrung, measured along the curve of the limbs. For most longbows, a 3″ difference between AMO and Actual Length is standard. Example: A bow marked “68″ AMO” would typically use a string with an Actual Length of 65″. Some manufacturers may differ slightly, so it's always a good idea to double-check. If you don't have a string to measure, the best method is to follow the curve of the limbs with a soft measuring tape from tip to tip—not in a straight line. Each string is handmade in the USA and built to the highest standards. Backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee, you can order with confidence
