My brother cut my bowstring on my longbow today. Being relatively new to this, I need some info. Are string lengths simply measured off my bow length? Where is the best place to get good strings and can I order on-line? Thanks for the help.
Google Northwest archery or 3rivers archery. They have just about anything. Your string will be shorter than you bow or else there wouldn't be any flex. Call them up and they will know exactly what you need.
What length is your longbow?
It says AMO 64"

Leef---doing a search under "AMO bowstring " yielded several discussions and the following bit of info.

Search on here and find Goldenhawk aka LeRoy Carlson he makes some awesome strings and can help you figure out what you need.
LeRoy makes a great string for sure guys..Rod Jenkins as well but you have to go through a sponsor here I forget his name but recently moved to Missouri
Give Leroy a call. Won't find a better guy or string.
If anyone has good contact information for Leroy, let me know. Thanks for the info.
Emailed Leroy.....Thanks everyone for the info.
Did you get a string yet?
No not yet, going to order one from Leroy.
Great talkin with you Cliff. Get these done for you asap!

Oh great! Thanks a lot! I won a string at the bunny hunt and now there will be hundreds of of them to be made before he gets to mine!
Worth the wait, though. :)
