BCY Mercury material is an SK99 material that is twice the thickness of original Mercury. It is a very stiff material that will produce high arrow speeds, but put a lot of vibration back into the bow.
For Mercury 2 we recommend the following strand counts as a starting point:
- 12 strands (20-28 lbs draw weight)
14 strands (29-38 lbs draw weight)
16 strands (39-48 lbs draw weight)
18 strands (49+ lbs draw weight)
Your new string - please specify:
- Strand count
- Color: available only in black

Your bow - please specify:
- Riser make/model/length(21", 23", 25", 27")/handedness - example: Hoyt GMX 25" right handed
- Limbs make/model/draw weight/length(short, medium, long) - example: Hoyt Axia 36lb medium
- Nocks make/model/size - example: Beiter #1 pin nocks
- Shooting style - example: Olympic recurve, barebow, traditional, hunting recurve
Mercury 2 String
We can determine the string length needed with your riser and limb specifications and by referencing bow manufacturer recommendations. Strings will come at that length with a standard number of twists already in the string and prestretched to reduce break in time. However if you have a string that gives you the desired brace height for your particular bow, we can match that. Here's how to measure.
