Stone Mountain DynaFLIGHT Recurve Bowstring

Got this as an upgrade to the HORRIBLE string that comes with the Sage. This string stretched just a bit, then quit. Unlike the original string. This string doesn’t buzz like the old, is quieter, and gained me about 6 feet per second increase in speed. (Chronograph verified)
The bad? The serving is too small for my Gold Tip traditional arrows and the nock falls off the string. I’ll reserve it, so be aware this may be an issue. Otherwise I’d rate it a 5

This is a very nice string for my recurve. My DW is 26# so I was recommended the 14 strands. The string could use some extra wax so be sure to get some.

I was surprised when I received this bow string, it has been the best quality to date and has helped to quiet the bow down. Was an excellent buy.

I have one AMO 64" 14 strand D97 for my Samick Journey 40# and it works fine. Had a small amount of creep and has settled at mid-spec brace height after around 30 twists.
The other two I have are 16 strand D97. One had a LOT of creep needed 80 twists to maintain brace (perhaps mislabeled?) and then suffered from stack. The other 16 strand is coming apart at the loop servings. The loop at one end seems funky, lays on the limb crooked and I think is causing the string to land outside the groove on release and then snap back into the groove (sometimes).

The 14 strand has seen 300 arrows so I will keep it for a backup. The Trad folks recommended the 3980013 and it is working fine.

I bought this string about 2 weeks ago for my 45# Samick Sage at the recommendation of the LAS Service Counter. $15 very well spent! The string looks great and only crept (stretched) minimally after my first 80-100 arrows. I reset my brace height (8 in) and now the string is stable and barely creeping. The velocity of my arrows has increased, and my brace height & nocking point are stable, compared to the poor quality string that was original equipment with my Sage. I only rated this string 4 out of 5 for quality because I have no long term experience with it -- we'll see how it holds up over time. However, so far so good and I am very happy because my Sage is so much better with this string, and so is my shooting. Also, many thanks to the Service Counter team at LAS -- great customer service experience on my first ever visit to the store. No question or problem too big or too small, and everyone was very patient, polite, and very attentive.

I've purchased several of these for various bow and have been happy with them. I suggest waxing the end servings/loops.

Bought two - both unraveled on the end serving after break-in of around 200 shots. The end servings are not tied securely. The are not dependable.

I bought one these for a 70in ILF bow. I ended up having to twist the string to its absolute maximum to hit the lower end of my bows brace height. The serving on the string is holding up well after 6 months of use.

So far I have used 4 Stone Mountain DynaFlite strings.
I shoot a 68" Olympic recurve. The string is supposed to be 65" per standard. After 1 yr. and a few thousand arrows, I measured the string, and it is shorter than 64.5" with no twists on it.
This causes the bow to have a very high brace height - well outside the bows recommended range. In my case, the recommended brace height is 8.5 to 9.25" Each time I assumed this was a one off issue. And I ordered a new string from Lancaster. Each time Lancaster gave me Stone Mountain. Each time it was the same problem. I have not seen this problem with other brands.

The end serving frayed and now the center serving is fraying after 5 months. I have never had a string serving come apart like this before. Staying away from Stone Mountain after this. The string is holding up well but the serving coming apart like this is unacceptable.

got this for my recurve, still going good after 6 mo's and thousands of arrows. I'm using a beginner wooden riser set up, but still arrow slinging, nonetheless. It doesn't stretch that much unlike dacron or fast flight flemish, so I did the newb thing of tying my nock right after stringing (for the first time, in forever), which happened after I got the package.

I'd get this again but the angel string just is a tad better.

The only cons is on my 62" wooden riser, the center serving is centered if you reverse it so larger loop is bottom. I was taught that the larger loop is on top because that's the last one to be looped, but oh well. This isn't a deal breaker just have to remember. I just let it go and let the storm rage on.
