My go-to guy is Allen Shafer/ Ten-ring Bowstrings (he recently established his own brand, used to be with Lefties R Us).  He builds gorgeous perfectly made hi-po strings with concierge style service and customization.  

TG'er "LBR" who runs Champion Custom Bowstrings is also outstanding by reputation and who I would use if I didnt already have such a good thing going with Allen.  

Both of them are TG Sponsors

X2 with Allen's strings-no disappointment there.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

X 2 on Rick. I've been very happy with his strings.
I wonder why we can't use his full name? He must have really pi$$ed someone off here. All though I couldn't see why he is a stand up guy.

I tried his and it just didn't work for me. Looking for other options.  I have one that I got from Kevin before RER changed hands but am in need of a good backup.

I've had excellent service and great strings from Pierre at SBD, also a sponsor here. In fact, all of my FF strings are currently SBD. My old Shakespere and Bear K Mag wear B50 strings from one of my local buds.

Regardless of which maker you use, I recommend BCY-X for the material.  Best all-around I've ever used.  Quiet, durable, super stable.
