Hallo everybody,
I hope somebody can give me a hint in the following case:
I have a new endless string for my crossbow. Is there any need to twist the string before putting the center serving on it ? If yes, how many times I have to twist the string ? Thank you all.

Re: String-Turns on a new Crossbowstring
You will want to take 5 turns out, pull the string tight and serve it tightly. There put 7 turns in, this makes the serving very tight. Clockwise to remove turns, counter clockwise to tighten in most cases, you should be able to follow the turbs in the string as it is.
It’s not the way you rock, it’s the way that you roll!

Re: String-Turns on a new Crossbowstring
You need a minimum of 5/6 twist in your Endless Loop string, More for flemish strings. What I would suggest is to install it with no serving on it and adjust the brace height to where you want it and let it set a few days ( adjusting as necessary ) to help remove some of the stretch . After a few days I would mark the center of string, remove it, put on a serving rack and untwist it CW 5 times, stretch it tight and serve it, then add your 5 twist back CCW . This is how I would do it but certainly not the only way .
