New strings from Oliverstacy...WOW!!!
« on: October 16, 2009, 06:21:00 PM »
I was happy to open the mailbox today and found a couple new strings from Oliverstacy.
 One of the strings is a 10 strand D-97 that I quickly put on my bow and immediately began breaking it in. Well after 20 shots the brace only changed a tiny bit.
 There was a notable bit of speed difference compared to the F.F. string I had on my St. Joe originaly. I HIGHLY recommend Josh for strings, especially if you like some extra zip added to your bow!!

 Here are a couple pics of my new "skinny string":
 
 
Just one more step please!

Thanks...I couldn't resist sending a skinny along with the other!  It looks nice on the bow...I'll make you a back-up with Dark Brown/FL Yellow next time to match the arrows better.

Quick question...does it make deer at 22 yards duck?  :saywhat:

Yep, Josh's strings are great!  They were the EXACT length I asked for with perfect loops and serving.  Expertly crafted  :thumbsup:

I had the same experience with Josh's strings. I won 2 of his strings. The best and tighter fitting loops I have ever seen. He is going to make all my strings from now on.

God bless,

Jose

Josh makes great stings. I have two orange/black and blue/ black. Fast and quiet.

I will get all stings from Josh. Matter of fact I might need one coming up for a kids bow.

My Widow now carries an OS string.  Great work, especially the serving.  By the way Josh, OS is for Oliverstacy. LOL  How come no return on my pm?

Just ordered my first from Josh this morning. Sent him an email late yesterday and the string went out this morning. Sure can't beat that! :-)

Yep, had Josh make me a couple 10 strands out of the D-97 for my Voodoostik and Thunderstick Mag. What a difference, quieter and faster. Great strings...  :thumbsup:

I only have two partial spools of B-50...blue and dark brown.

I have multiple colors of B-500 which is BCY's version of B-50.

Check out the link in my signature and I'll get you what you need!

Again everyone…thanks!

I want to put in my 2 cents worth. I had josh make a d97 string for a longbow and it came in the mail 2 days later.  One of the best strings I have put on a bow. From now on I will have Josh make all my strings.
