Help Learning to Build Strings

[hickstick]

I actually pulled out my flemish jig this weekend and twisted up a few.   been a long time.  

my widow is now way quieter now too.  new b50 string and fresh puff balls...its almost as quiet as my longbow.

Chad and Rod's dvd is all you need!

Does "How to Build a Great Bowstring" spend much time on getting a consistent length string? I find that to be the biggest challenge in making flemish.

Steve, we show and recommend measuring everything, and doing it the same way every time.  It's like shooting a bow--consistency is the key.  Also like shooting a bow, there's no magic to it--just practice.

Thanks Fritz!

I got the video and it is well done - I think I have the fear of jumping in as all the amterial is right before me yet I have not tried to buidl one yet.  May be that Chad also sales the best strings out there and i just have him build mine

Thanks Dave!

Don't think I remembered to mention this also.  If you catch me at a shoot, I'll be happy to help you work through any problems you may be having--I'll try at least!

I'm easy to find...just look for the BCY banner.  We don't have anything scheduled for TX, but you never know.  If there's a big show and the dates fall right, we'll be there.
