I have a Samick Sage 62" Takedown Recurve Bow , #35. What string length do I need?

According to convention, 58", but it couldn't hurt to check with the manufacturer.

AMO string length of 62" is a true length of 58". A measurement of string notch to string notch in an unstrung bow will give you a "pretty dang close" number to start with if you have no AMO lenght listed. 4" actual length shorter than AMO length is good fog recurve, longbow is around 3" less. Base height may be listed as well ( distance from string to deepest recess in grip while strung ) will help dial it in.

According to the ad you can set the draw between 13 and 30 inches and between 5 and 70 lbs. Mine was set to 65 lbs and 24". If you don't know what you are doing I suggest taking it to a pro to set the bow up. I did that and he worked on it for a bit to get the draw length right. Take the instructions with you, if it isn't a bow they sell and work on regularly they will need to see them. Great bow, easy to shoot.

The draw length can be anywhere from 16" to 24". You can pull it back a minimum of 16" to a maximum of 24". This is not technically a compound bow, as there is no let off.

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.

I'm sorry, I can't really answer that as I can't judge your strength. http://www.beararcheryproducts.com/bows/youth/bullseye tells the draw weight at 28".Good luck.

Three feet before the it is strung. Once strung it is aprx 35". Still not too wide and the same width as Excalibur crossbows. The Wildfire II is an outstanding bow for the money!

My bow is a lightweight recurve pulling about 35#. All commercially made bow strings obviously take this into account. These arrows I purchased nocked onto that bowstring well. I would not try to use these fiberglass arrows on any bow pulling more than 40#.

By size do you mean length? If so that will depend on the draw length. If you are new to archery I recommend going to your local archery shop to get arrows. Take the bow with you and they can set you up with the proper draw length and make the arrows to fit. I hope this helps

Many archery stores sell strings, aswell as amazon. They usually cost $5-$15. The way to tell the size string you need is to look at the size of the bow and subtract 4". So in this case the bow is 45". You need a string that is 41". Once you get the string wax it twist it a little and install it. You need to check the brace hight. On this bow the brace hight is 8". Twist more or less to get the correct brace hight. If you don't know what brace hight is. Google it. And get a good tune on your bow

I have a 65 lb compound bow and my arrows penetrate several inches sometimes 6 or more. It should work fine at 35 lbs, just make sure your target points match the diameter of your arrow shafts. If the points are wider than the arrow they will be difficult to remove. And if they are smaller than the arrow shaft they may not penetrate well. Good luck

The string is about 56 or 57", and is an appropriate fit for a bow with an AMO length of 60." (approximately the length from string nock to string nock, as measured with a soft tape measure).

Not familiar with the measurements of that particular bow; I shoot a PSE Dream Season EVO and there's room to spare.

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

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

Your bow should be fine. I think the response concerning the crossbow was a bit "overstated". I'm shooting a 60# compound w/field tips and they went in 3-5 ". I've taken mine apart after more than 2000 shots and recycled the contents into a replacement bag cover which I highly recommend doing! ;0)
