Flemish or Endless style

[bow101]

Which do you prefer to use/and make.? Flemish or Endless style.

[Slackbunny]

I use flemish because its what I learned first. I've read that flemish is also somewhat quieter, but I can't back that up personally. I also like the way the loops look.

[Rick Wallace]

Continuous loop for me. Easier i think

[twilightandmist]

reverse twist, all the way. one long strand, then take the end and weave it back through to make the loop, making it the same thickness at the loop instead of half. in my experience, they tend to be lighter, sturdier strings that last longer. just my opinion, and i dont have much experience with endless loop other than synthetics.

I started out making endless loop but switched to flemish twist last summer.  I find it much easier and quicker to twist up a flemish string.

I learned flemish loop first and have used it for every string I make. I do like to buy endless loop strings though because they're cheaper and in my opinion more durable.

Flemish. quick and easy .Looks traditional. Easy to add fur string silencers. Easy to fine tune the length by twisting to get a good arrow flight.Takes about 20 -30mins with serving and nocking point.

[Arrowind]

Like both but prefer Flemish for many of the same reasons as lostarrow.

[ksnow]

Flemish, for all of the reasons already listed.  Fast, easy, easy to adjust, can even move them from one bow to another.

I make a Flemish. It is easier for me. Jawge

[Olanigw (Pekane)]

I've always made endless, but most of my experience is production work for outfitting youth camps on the cheap.  I'm looking forward to doing a sideXside comparison as soon as my old FB lam'd bow is back in shooting shape.

[Rufledt]

My vote is flemish.  I learned to make that one first and I've been too happy with it to try making an endless string.  I did use purchased endless strings before learning how to make a flemish string, but the lack of adjustability made me stop buying them.

Flemmish twist! Always have. It is the most traditional if that matters.

[mikekeswick]

I use flamish but endless string are faster.

Endless for me!  Flemish are just like a coil spring, with low braceheight they slap your wrist, they stretch more than  an endless loop from the same material. I do use a flemish string for tillering, when the bow is finished i make a endless string
