The jury is still out IMO. I'm lucky enough to know Rod Jenkins (the best string maker I know), and have discussed it with him. Rod likes small strings (8-10 strand 8125 and Dyna, I think--need to ask him again), but doesn't normally shoot more than 45# or so. Also had a good phone conversation about the same with O.L. Adcock a day or two ago--he's shooting a 4 strand Dyna '97 on a .......50#, I think, and his wife is shooting a 2-strand on a 35# or so. They both really like them.

Although I trust these folks (I trust Rod as much as anyone--I know how meticulous he is, and he's probably forgotten more about archery than most of us will ever know), I'm hesitant. I just don't know enough folks that have tried them. I remember when PENN 66 and B-75 were the rage--until they were taken off the market due to string failures. There's just too many variables for me to be comfortable with such tiny strings without more input. The smallest I shoot are 10 strands on my selfbows (58-66#). They don't seem to give that much ofa performance advantage, but I can see where in some cases every fps counts.

I don't see me testing them personally, at least not yet. I don't have the time, and really don't have the desire. I love the way my bow shoots now (ain't going to try and fix what isn't broken), it's hunting season, and I've got too many irons in the fire as it is.

I'll try to get more info. as time goes on, and see if this is just a passing fad or if there's more to it.
