Title: Who Makes a Good Reasonable Bow Sock
Post by: Terry Riley on April 24, 2010, 10:58:00 PM
Anyone make and sell bow socks. Bought some years back from Glenda Krewson that were real nice and reasonably priced but I haven't been able to locate her website. Anyone know it or have another source for good reasonably priced socks?

I'll second that. I've got three of them and she made them longer than normal for my two 66" recurves and my 68" longbow.

I like Teresa Asbell's wool bow socks. Well made, leather tips, nice colors. I usually pick them out at Compton, Kalamazoo or other gatherings where she shows up with G Fred.

Thanks guys. I need a bunch of them hence my reason for asking about reasonably priced. All of these are great suggestions.

Well, I've seen and handled Teresa's work for over 20 years. She is goood, no doubts there!

How about making some yourself? My wife sewed up some for me years ago, and we used some old wrangler jeans! Stitch 2 legs together, works great! Or how about old camo pants? Alot of materials to use. Be creative and have fun.
