NEED A STRING
« on: September 08, 2010, 10:40:00 PM »
I am looking for a back up string for my gamemaster 2. I was wondering if anyone sells or could recommend a string for this recurve? I was also wondering what others thought of the factory string that I am currently using? Thanks for your help.

They are a few excellent stringmakers here in the sponsors classified section.

I would reccomend Oliverstacy.  Check him out in the Sponsors forum.

Better yet buy a 1/8 lb. roll of whatever material  say D97 and a serving tool and some center serving and make your own! not hard to do. just go on line and look up building flemish Bowstrings and your set !!  :wavey:

All the sponsors are top-notch I'm sure, but I use Oliverstacy in the Sponsors classifieds. Great strings, fast, priced right.

Chad at Chek Mate/Champion Custom Bowstrings makes a NICE string. Does it fast at a very reasonable price.

Seems a real nice guy to boot.

All of the string makers here at TradGang are great. I use SBD bowstrings and they make the best strings I have ever used. For a recurve, get the recurve wraps and string silencers installed on your string when SBD makes it. The string will be very quiet and very fast.

I bought one recently from Rose Oak Creations. I love the string, I couldn't believe the price, and it arrived in less than 4 days.
