the string that connects the limbs is the bow string (both for recurve and compound bows) the additional strings on a compound bow are referred to as cables
Isn’t it simply called a string? Or Bow-string?
"bowstring". I suppose there could be a more "modern" term, such as "arrow / archer interface fiber"…
Or, you could do as I did. I named my bowstring" Max".
(The Anishinaabe, or "Ojibwe", word is "achaab")
