quote from the stringmaster BOO
They are barely faster but mostly used for it's durability. The sting is more tightly twisted together in the main part of the string and has twice the string material at the loops.

Re: strings
Jim, I double checked that I PMed you. My mistake. It's the other way around. The endless loop has a higher speed potential but I question if a normal chronograph can measure the difference given the same number of strands. Given the same weight I believe the Flemish string is faster. If both strings have the same number of strands the Flemish string is normally heavier. The single biggest problem with and endless loop string is that there is no give when the string comes to the end of it's travel. The Flemish string is coiled through out the string including the loops so it acts somewhat like a cushion or spring that has a slight deceleration when the string hits and goes past the brace height after the shot. I don't make them any more but if I did, I would not use a minimum string count and I would make them a bit long so they would have a quite a few twists when installed and would also pad the loops(hint, hint).michiganman wrote:quote from the stringmaster BOO

Sorry about the mistake Jim but I've answered some 30 emails and PMs this afternoon and some this morning. Not to mention emails in my business address!
Some people just like stepping on rakes
Man Boo you been one busy fellow for sure. I sure like my Boo string and set everything as you suggested.
Should have taken a pic of it as it matches my outfit and not only shoots great but of course looks great, take it easy and don't get burned out making the strings.
Thanks much for mine and hope some day to re-pay ya, the folks on here can't do enough for me and let me tell ya I sure appreciate it.
