I have a Crossman ABY215 recurve, with "custom string." To get a replacement, which string should I get? Measures '45" tip to tip'. 20lb 25"max draw

If there is no AMO string length on the bow, then you can start with the tip to tip (unstrung) as a "pretty close" length. If the old string is intact, it will probably have stretched if it's not a fast-flight string, so go a 1/2" or so shorter. The AMO string will measure about 4" shorter than what the package says. I have a bunch of Bill Stewart recurves with the "multicam" wrinkle in them and found the string length needed when not listed is very close to the tip to tip measurement, keeping in mind the Stewart limbs have a more radical curve at the tip. Base height when strung should be around 6-3/4" to 7-1/2" ( distance from innermost section of grip to string). May want to go a bit long and then twist the string to get dialed in, string should have some twists anyway and if it is well waxed the twists tend to "set".

I am using Easton Carbon "Raider" (55/70) (400) arrows with these points. Using it with a recurve bow. I don't see the particular arrows I own listed ( not even on Easton's website). Overall Easton arrows. Search Easton Carbon arrows on Amazon.

Correction: The string is 60" for my 64" (notch to notch unstrung bow). Rule of thumb 4" shorter than bow. The string is labeled for the length of the bow on the package. My glass re-curve bow is a 40# draw. So you order for the bow length and the string should arrive automatically 4" shorter.

According to the ad you can set the draw between 13 and 30 inches and between 5 and 70 lbs. Mine was set to 65 lbs and 24". If you don't know what you are doing I suggest taking it to a pro to set the bow up. I did that and he worked on it for a bit to get the draw length right. Take the instructions with you, if it isn't a bow they sell and work on regularly they will need to see them. Great bow, easy to shoot.

Hi,I understand the question but I recommend speaking to whoever is going to sell you the string about this. A major sports supermarket has qualified technicians who can give you free advice on the string type and tension (mine was medium) . Hope this helps.

Many archery stores sell strings, aswell as amazon. They usually cost $5-$15. The way to tell the size string you need is to look at the size of the bow and subtract 4". So in this case the bow is 45". You need a string that is 41". Once you get the string wax it twist it a little and install it. You need to check the brace hight. On this bow the brace hight is 8". Twist more or less to get the correct brace hight. If you don't know what brace hight is. Google it. And get a good tune on your bow

Katsumoto-san,I think what you are saying is that you broke one of the LIMBS. The Martin Archery website will provide a replacement, you need to tell them the draw weight of the bow you are using. Here is a link you should look at: http://martinarchery.shptron.com/p/martin-take-down-limbs

Your bow should be fine. I think the response concerning the crossbow was a bit "overstated". I'm shooting a 60# compound w/field tips and they went in 3-5 ". I've taken mine apart after more than 2000 shots and recycled the contents into a replacement bag cover which I highly recommend doing! ;0)

Hey Dylan, That bow is probable gonna be way to easy for you to draw...and too small also. A fellow your size (as I am also) Should be drawing around 30 to 31 inches in draw length....and at least 50 lbs draw weight....I prefer the solocam bow types...the ones with one eccentric cam pulley and one very round pulley...these are very stable bows and tend to stay in tune better than the twin eccentric cam bows do... Just about any brand name would work fine...Matthews, Hoyt, Browning, PSE, Bear. This little bow isnt exactly a toy but feels like one in my hand. I would recommend a Matthews solocam bow for you.

My bow is a lightweight recurve pulling about 35#. All commercially made bow strings obviously take this into account. These arrows I purchased nocked onto that bowstring well. I would not try to use these fiberglass arrows on any bow pulling more than 40#.

"Arrow spine weight must match or be higher than bow weight." The draw weight of the bow in question is: 15 to 20 pounds. Draw length: 15 to 20 inches.The bow features durable composite limb and riser construction and measures 26 inches from axle to axle. Constructed of fiberglass, the Safetyglass arrows offer high flexing qualities and will not splinter. My guess is yes, you can use these arrows, since they come with the bow. I guess you would get the 26" arrows. The description is a little vague, but I notice that these arrows are commonly purchased together with the bow in question. The final question is what length of arrow do you get? 26" seems a safe bet. Or higher, 28" to 30" since "Arrow spine weight must match or be higher than bow weight." i would buy the bow and see what arrows come with it before ordering more, or else contact the company directly and ask them, since the info does not appear to be on Amazon.

No, a 40" draw is pretty unusual. You would probably do better with a larger bow. The Mohegan bow from greatreearchery comes in a 68 inch model for the same price range. They are a little harder to find in 68". I would try andoverarchery and call and ask them.

long bow string lengths are supposed to be at least 3" shorter than bow length nock-nock. you can go 2.5" or up to 4" but these lengths will affect you your brace height and string tension. if you want higher brace go with 4" shorter and more strands than your draw weight needs. personally i'd say never go for a lower brace than what you get at 3" shorter string though. too much wrist slap.

Draw length is adjustable and very simple to change. It is definitely powerful enough to hunt with. I used it this past season and the deer is shot went about 20 yards so it packs enough punch. I think the max draw weight is 60lbs not sure you could get that much with a 22" draw but I definitely recomend this bow. For the money and quality you can't beat it.

The 150 lb string I bought was not a quality string. The serving was said by a professional string producer to be of some unknown, to him, material. The string began becoming loose in the serving upon the first few shots. I recommend buying material and advice from a bow outfitter, and learning to make one's own strings.
