Best place to buy a new string
« on: November 26, 2008, 08:45:00 PM »
Question for everyone. Where's the best place to buy a quality string (non-FF) for a longbow? The loops on my current string are fraying real bad and I'm pretty lost when it comes to this stuff. Never had to replace a string before.

Thanks for any help.

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

"Raineman's" strings are excellent! He'll custom match the colors to your bow, and they look/shoot great. Price's are right, too!    :thumbsup:  

I have them on all of my bows:

Three Tree Strings is another great place for strings. Excellent strings, great prices, fast shipping.

Thanks for all the advice, guys. I've sent an email to Mr. Graham. Hopefully he'll be able to set me up.
