Actually, I believe the the FF (I pretty much use the DF97) strings are quieter then dacron.
Sir, I see that you are a life member and have a lot of posts, but I simply don't understand that answer. How can a string that is unforgiving in stretch witch would cause more shock in it's abrupt action cause less noise than a string that had some leeway/forgiveness in it?
I have never shot a FF type string so I could very well be missing something, could you please explain further?

Changeling
Technically I can't answer that further. Maybe Chad could.My statement is based on experience.FWIW, I also believe that there is less handshock in FF strings.If your bow can handle the FF, I would most definetely give it a try. From what I have heard, some recurves maybe quieter with a dacron because of string slap, that has not been my experience however. I even use FF on my Selfbows.
