Im happy to vouch for CJC(above), quality strings at good price, fast service. He'll be making mine as long as he's making strings.

Bearbowman-- Steve Smith. Best I have seen.
 Lots of bowmakers think so too. Like Morrison and Hill country.

There are lots of good string makers on this forum. Why not become one of them yourself. B-50 is fairly cheap and good to learn with. I learned years ago by reading a jay massey book. then refined my strings a bit by watching the "doing the twist" dvd. Not taking anything away from the guys that make them all the time, but with a little practice I'd say most folks who are into archery and have the coordination to shoot a bow, should be able to twist up a serviceable string. I know that when I need one, I can have one in about 15-30 minutes. Just my take. Sorry for bableing on and on. DB

I use bearbowman (Steve Smith) as well.  He makes a really nice string, offers professional service and is a host of information.
