I'm not really in business lol......yet. I can make strings for grizzlys easy cause I can stretch and serve it on mine. The are rookie strings though lol. Not sure how to pre stretch and serve for a bow length I don't have. Also only have b 55 material. No access to fast flight yet.
Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Quite simple. Buy one of each bow you want to make strings for. Now you have an excuse.

And you wouldn't be lying! :mrgreen:
