String makers.

Post by BrotherRon »

I have purchased strings from more than a few members here already and every one of them seems to be top quality. Very fine craftsmanship and works of art.

I agree Ron,

back in the winter I had VixenMaster make up a couple of strings for me. One in the Canada Flag colours (red/white) and one in my "someday will win a SuperBowl", Washington Redskin colours (or as close as he had) - have been a fan since Theismann was the QB (younger guys will have to google that one) :)

I put on my Redskins string a month ago and have been "stretching it" ever since - less than two dozen shots and four adjustments so far.

Anyhow, after reading your post "today", decided to take it out back to the range (outdoor, 25 yards) and see how she is doing.

(conditions - 6:00pm Eastern Time, Temp 23C/74F, 68% humidity, winds from the S/W @ 10kms/6mph (tail wind for me, so no cross wind deflection))

I used the same arrow for 5 shots @ 25 yards (to alleviate as many variables as possible. Shot front supported (ala shooting rail, same as Bambi hunting).

The quarter in the pic is a Canuck quarter, pretty much the same dimensions as the US 1/4 buck for reference.

The results?

Well, I guess the string is still stretching a bit - hope it will settle down by hunting season :lol:

Too bad I pulled those two lower left shots - operator error blew a "not bad" group.

....I guess the accessorizing bug has yet to bite you....I have about 6 strings from 3 different craftsman on this forum, in different price ranges and love them all...still don't feel like I have enough....reminds me of my "G.I Joe" days (you younger guys will have to Google that one! :lol: :lol: )

....My advice, if you don't want to have the bug bite you, DON'T, I say, DON'T, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, look at the postings of the various string makers where they "show their wares"....YOU WILL BE SORRY! :lol: :lol:

....as I have once stated, "now I understand women with pocketbooks and high heels and the need to accessorize!" :lol: :lol:

....and these string twisters continue to post lurid, obscene images of their wares on this family forum which lure us poor, unsuspecting, wholesome, innocent individuals into their web FORCING us to purchase these beautifully, colorfully twisted strings :shock: :shock: :cry: :cry: ....it is such a travesty as some of us are spending our last earned dollar to support this string addiction :shock: :shock: :cry: :cry:

....I have had to secretly enroll in FSPA- Flemish String Purchaser Anonymous :cry: in an effort to beat this addiction...
