hello all i just bought a used recurve bow with no string, it reads 62amo doses this mean i need a 62 inch string or do i need to take off 2 inchs and buy a 60 inch string. thanks for any help
No conversion is necessary. If you buy a string for a recurve bow it will automatically be 4" shorter than the bow. All you need to ask for is a 62" AMO string with the proper amount of strands. If it's an older bow then be sure and get a string made of Dacron or B50 material.

3" less than AMO. You need a 59" string. You can always shorten by twisting.
