October Mountain Recurve String B50 52 In. Amo 16 Strand

The October Mountain Recurve String B50 52 In. Amo 16 Strand is a traditional bow string engineered for hunters and archers who demand reliability in the field. Built from proven Dacron material, this 16-strand configuration delivers the durability and consistency that traditional recurve and longbow shooters have trusted for decades. Whether you're preparing for hunting season or maintaining your favorite recurve, this AMO-length string is designed to meet the exacting standards of serious bowhunters.

Dacron remains the gold standard for traditional bowstrings due to its low stretch characteristics, consistent performance across temperature changes, and forgiving nature on vintage and custom bows. The 16-strand construction provides an optimal balance between durability and minimal weight, while the monofilament center serving protects the critical serving area from wear and fraying. The quality-served loops are pre-formed to precise specifications, ensuring proper nocking point alignment and eliminating the guesswork of field repairs. Note that the actual string measures approximately 4 inches shorter than the listed AMO length—a standard specification in traditional archery that accommodates brace height and draw dynamics.

This string is ideal for hunters running 52-inch AMO recurves and longbows across a wide range of draw weights and styles. The 16-strand Dacron construction works equally well on modern takedown recurves and vintage wood bows, making it a versatile choice for archers with mixed arsenals. Installation is straightforward—simply replace your worn string with the new one using standard bowstring fitting procedures. For best results, maintain proper brace height (typically 7.5 to 9 inches for most recurves) and inspect the string regularly for wear during extended hunting seasons.
