Best Bowstring for Beginners? Flemish Twist Single Loop for a longbow. How to make a bowstring. USA Merch https://teespring.com/stores/lone-arc... UK Merch https://teespring.com/stores/lone-arc... Although I am a novice in all things archery, people ask me many questions. Jasper asked if I could show him how to make a bowstring. So I demonstrate the simplest method I know - a single loop Flemish twist. I use Dacron B (Amazon link below) to make my two-ply 16 strand bowstring to be fitted to an 86lb triple laminate longbow (with a bowyer's knot plus a stopper knot to avoid it slipping). I like to make my strings so that I can use them as tillering strings or use them on bows of similar weights and lengths so I make it a generous length cutting the strands 20 inches longer than the nock to nock length of the bow. I use a bowyer's knot to secure the string to one of the knocks, the loop sliding up the bow limb and slid over the other knock when braced. I complete the string and brace the bow, allowing the string stretch before serving. I do not serve the string - but if anyone would like me to demonstrate serving a bowstring then please leave a comment to that effect. Typical bundle sizes for different bow weights when using Dacron B50. 20-30# - 8 strand 25-35# - 10 strand 35-45# - 12 strand 45-55# - 14 strand 55-80# - 16 strand I demonstrate a very simple single loop Flemish twist that needs no jig; it has two-ply loop at one end, a twisted tail and the body of the string is simply waxed and twisted . But it is possible to refine this string by adding a second loop which is preferred for bows above 70/80lbs - Dacron is a slippy material and the bowyer's knot will slip on heavy bows - hence making a second loop which is more secure than a bowyer's knot. The loop ends can be tapered by using a jig that enables the strands in each bundle to be cut at different lengths giving a nice, even taper on the tail of the loop(s).
