Many guys just make FF strings...who are the guys that make B-50/Dacron strings?  Suggestions would be great?

Thanks

I ordered 2 from a guy on here that goes by the name oliverstacy.  Real nice to work with and strings turned out well.

Not sure if you mean just "who makes them", i.e. for their own use, or who makes them for sale.   I make my own b_50's.   Wouldn't use anything else because modern type strings wouldn't be appropriate for the bows I build, it'd be like shooting carbon arrows in them.   If you're looking for suggestions, mine would be learn to make them.   Not that hard, not that expensive to get into, and fun.

If I need one, as I probably should have one or two on stand by, I will get them from my bower.

I had a couple made by Oliverstacy, he is a sponsor here and they are absolutely the best strings I have ever had on one of my bows. Give him a try and you won't be sorry.

Josh Sowerby "oliverstacy" makes a great sting at a great price. I have a B-55 string that I have been shooting out of an older GN Super Ghost.

PERFECT !!!

I have B-500 and now just got a shipment of B-55.  I keep these, plus Dynaflight '97, Formula 8125, and 450+ in several colors on hand, along with Halo, 62XS, and nylon serving in several colors and sizes (except nylon--it only comes in one size).
