FAQs
Is D97 the same as Fast Flight?
No, but BCY 652 Spectra is the same as the original Brownell Fast Flight material. However, these days, the term “fast flight” is often used to refer to many different materials that don’t stretch significantly, allowing a higher transfer of energy to the arrow, resulting in higher speeds. D97 is widely considered to be an upgrade from the original Fast Flight material.
What is the best material for bow strings?
That depends on its use case. BCY D97 isn’t the best choice for compound bow strings, although it’s a budget-friendly option. However, the D97 string material is one of the best choices for recurves and crossbows because it has a sponginess that helps with shock absorption.
If you’re not sure which material is right for your needs, don't hesitate to reach out for personalized guidance. You can also find more information in our bow string material guide.
How many strands of D97 are there?
Normal strand count with BCY D97 bow string material is 14-16 for traditional and compound bows or 24-28 with crossbows.
What material is the Dyneema bow string made of?
BCY’s Dyneema material is made from High Modulus Polyethylene, also known as HMPE. This is the same material used to make BCY’s Spectra material, although the fiber count is slightly different. Dyneema is often used for bow strings, while Spectra is often used for servings.
