Title: Looking for a Top Notch string maker
Post by: Jim Neaves on February 04, 2009, 11:24:00 AM

Well, I am on the hunt for someone that is a talented string maker. I have very specific ways that I like my strings made and would like to know if any of you would have suggestions on who would be a good candidate to build my strings for me. Please contact me at 406-360-2153

Thanks, Jim Neaves (Centaur Archery)

I throw in another vote for Bobby Gram. He makes your string EXACTLY how you want it----i didn't realize there were SO many choices going into making a string untill I called him.  VERY GOOD Quality!!

Jim, as many have already said. Three Tree Strings. I'm picky how my strings are made. Tony&Tracy have no problem complying with my order. And it's done. FAST.
Jim I'm going to place an order with you the last part of March. I have all my details in order. I'm looking forward to getting on the list. Steve.
