Default RE: Question on recurve flemish string???

On the little tags sticking out below the loops, the others covered it well. I trim them off flush, but there's always some that work their way out--it won't hurt a thing, but if it bugs you they can be trimmed off--nail clippers work with dacron, but it takes an exacto knife for the others (be careful!).

TX, you obviously can't feel it but there's a rough spot in that string groove somewhere. Dacron isn't nearly as tough as the other materials, but it shouldn't cut like that. It doesn't take much of a spot to cause that, especially with a lot of shoting. Rubbing a cotton ball in the groove may show you where it's at (it will catch a little bit of the cotton). The groove needs to be polished smooth and that will take care of the problem.
