At some point in the last year or so I measured my string at 57" . I went to replace it this afternoon . The string I bought said that the "actual" leangth was 57" . It looked an inch too short to me . So I got the next longest one , it was 59" . First - could my string have streched an inch in a year ? Second - the longer string seems good , does it effect the poundage / speed , etc. ? Thanks for the input .
