| Making your own strings is pretty easy and loads cheaper. I've bought a Greg Hill string last year, while it's the best made string I've ever seen (perfectly round, strands perfectly evenly twisted etc), it was no better in results than a home made effort. For the price of one of his strings you can buy a 1/4 spool of 8125, make a jig, and make 5 strings.
There's loads of guides on the web and in books as to how to do it. It's also really satisfying to make your own string and find it's a good'un.
FYI I'm round about 1200 fita/1100 York level. I better archer may be able to tell the difference, I doubt a Bowmen class can tell. No offence intended if you can. I've compared Dynaflight 02, 8125, fastflight, endless and Flemish twist, but I always get about the same results. For me, I find that it's number of strands and bracing height that matters, not material. |
