I've never been disappointed with the quality of strings I've had from a number of our of vendors here; I just go with whoever uses the material I want at the time.

How on earth did you go through so many strings?
I’m sure there’s a great reason but for the rest take care of em, wax em regular and they’ll last years.

Lol, Pierre asked me the same thing and I asked him if he’s ever made me a string for the same bow,nope .You think I’ve got a stringproblem you should see my bow problem ,and my arrow problem and my quiver problem etc. etc.Being trying new bows and collecting for close to 55 years .My kids and grandkids call the big room downstairs Papas museum.My son figures I have more equipment than any archery shop he’s ever been to.A good buddy of mine makes my collection look sick ,at last count I think it’s around 120 custom,and I mean custom bows.Everyones got a fetish’s for something,Oh you should see my custom flintlocks and fly rods lol.Michael if you ever come west, call me and I’ll give you the tour, lunch included of course.

I’ve had a number made from Allen at ten rings for longbows and recurves. In fact I have two more on the way next week. What I like about His strings they can come with silencers and string arrow nocks installed instead of me putting on a metal nock. He does any color and or combo. Top notch.

I like SBD Silent But Deadly Bowstrings a lot.I never saw a reason to switch really.Bows shoot very quiet and pleasantly with his string build and the materials he uses.The quality of string Pierre builds is 5 star.

I am sure the other string makers mentioned here make 1st class strings as well.

Another vote for SBD. Very good quality.
One stick, one string and an arrow I'll fling!
