I have built a 72" longbow, whick measures 70" nock to nock. What size string do I need to order? Thank you.

You always want your bow string 4-3 inches shorter than the size of your recurve or long bow

I also had a longbow and used a string 4 inches shorter than the nock to nock meas.I was not concerned with the tension weight, only the look. Hope this helps

My bow is 58.25" nock to nock and I use a 55.5" string. I imagine that you would use a 67" string.

I also had a long bow and string length of 4 inches shorter seemed to work.I was not concerned with the string tension. Hope this helps

long bow string lengths are supposed to be at least 3" shorter than bow length nock-nock. you can go 2.5" or up to 4" but these lengths will affect you your brace height and string tension. if you want higher brace go with 4" shorter and more strands than your draw weight needs. personally i'd say never go for a lower brace than what you get at 3" shorter string though. too much wrist slap.

The string is about 27 inches. Get the right pounds about 150-160 and you be ok, got my replacement from amazon

The weight is measured at 28" draw for all and I draw 31.5' on the 62". Being instutional bows, they have a wide draw range. Call Bear if it's a concern.

Depends on what their draw it you will need to go to sportmans wharehouse or some place that has bows for sale and get his draw measured they will then st the bow to match hope this helps

These arrows are about 28 inches from the nock to the arrow head, so you're draw length is more of a determining factor. The shafts seem kind of light so I wouldn't use them with a heavy draw weight. Some people have complained about the shafts being warped, and some of mine are but hey...primitive arrows. If I'm going to hunt I'm going to get some carbon arrows and sharp broad heads, but I might use these on small game. Overall they are a nice product and look really good.

The arrow length you need depends on your draw length. Draw length is the length from your anchor point to about 1" past the arrow rest. If you look up a few archery websites there is a formula you can use to calculate it but your best to go to a shop with your equipment and have it measured out. The kit comes with 30" arrows.

Yes to first 2 questions. The length should be adjustable to your range. Check with your State as to the minimum draw for hunting with a bow. Florida requires 35 pound draw.

I'm not sure if the 28" fiberglass arrows would be good for a long bow. My knowledge of archery equipment is very limited. I sent those arrows to my son who is shooting them with an old 35 pound fiberglass bow. I think the bow is a cross between a re curve and a long bow. I wouldn't use them with a heavier bow because they are a low velocity arrow for low draw weight bows. A guy I work with, who knows about these things, said if you used those arrows with a compound bow with a 60# draw they would shatter while going through the arrow guide and possibly cause an injury. My son says they work good with his bow but could be a couple inches longer. I'm not sure if the 28" fiberglass arrows would be good for a long bow. My knowledge of archery equipment is very limited.

All I can say is these arrows were purchased for me to use with my 55lb., composite bow. They are 31 inches long and work well with my bow.

I can't honestly answer this question. What I will say is that this bow is 5' tall unstrung and almost exactly your height strung. My intuition says that it's not the correct size but I'm not an expert. I would suggest going to your local sporting goods store and asking.

I have 2 traditional recurve bows and I've fired over 60 of these arrows through them. One is 25 #and the other is 45#. They fly straighter than any other arrow I've used so far. Hope this helps

No, a 40" draw is pretty unusual. You would probably do better with a larger bow. The Mohegan bow from greatreearchery comes in a 68 inch model for the same price range. They are a little harder to find in 68". I would try andoverarchery and call and ask them.

I took mine to Gander Mountain, they are 40" strings, can probably get it done at any Bow Outfitter as well.

Most arrows are 32-34" uncut. Your draw length does not reflect the length of arrow actually used. I shoot with a 29" draw length but my arrows are cut to 28.5" from the nock channel so these should be fine for you.
