Custom Flemish Strings by Oliverstacy
« on: May 09, 2011, 09:50:00 PM »
I just got a new 3 pc TallTines longbow.  I have a very short time to get it ready for a bear hunt up in Manitoba.  Rather than have Brian send an extra string with it, I called up Josh Sowerby and ordered up one of his 450+ longbow strings.

  THE NEXT DAY  my Oliverstacy string showed up in the mail.  Every time I get something from Josh I am impressed with the quality and the service.  When you open up the package and you are greeted by all this great information, how can you not be impressed?

 

Write down which bow the string is for on the back of that little tag and you are set for life!  Need a new string, using different nocks that are tight or loose?  You know exactly what you had and where to go with the new string.

I don't have time to post a bunch of detailed photos showing how perfect the loops and servings are, but they are all in Josh's ad in The Sponsors Classifieds here:

Excellent product and value    :thumbsup:

I've thought about trying to make my own strings, but with the quality and service that Josh provides I gave up on that idea.  He gets all of my business.
They are perfect!

All my bows wear Josh's strings. Can't beat'em. I'm like Whip, I ocassionally think about starting to build my own, then realize I'd never get them better. I'd rather spend the time practicing.

If Josh makes 'em, why does Oliver get credit?

My wife asks the same question...   :knothead:  

Thanks for all the kind words!!!  I've been busy this year and looking forward to more.

Here's a small sample of strings that didn't make the grade (Oliver wasn't happy  :banghead:  ):

 

Thanks,

Josh

They are all I have used lately. Very personalized service and unbelievably fast delivery.
I tell him no rush and they are in the mail the next day.
