9tine Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 For fifty years all I have ever used is 3/16 braided nylon rope. It is strong, flexible, holds a good knot and never seems to wear out. What do you prefer? A lot of guys seem to like paracord. It seems to me that it would wear faster, but I've never tested it on a spear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhunt Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I like the paracord, it is light, flexible, strong, and doesn't hold retain much water. I think it does wear a little faster, but it is pretty cheap, and can be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ1657 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I switched to paracord and I really like it. Stays flexible and so far has held up well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archerysniper Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Paracord here also,I like it because it doesn't tangle easy and any knot come out right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minky Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Sounds like I might need to give para cord a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Paracord only, and I found a great deal on it at FF in Brainerd.I have had it on the two different spears for a total of 8 years and I would almost bet its still just as strong as the first day I put it on.
