There are a lot of good ones. I really like strings from rocky mountian specialty gear a sponsor here. They are fast at getting at gettig them out to you and quality work they stand behind.   Give them a call.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I am going to check out each one. I may even buy a few stings from different vendors.

Looking at SBD website it appears to have a max of 63 pounds. My longbow is higher than that so I will be talking to them.

How can I get ahold of Oliver Stacey?

If your thinking about a bow string do yourself a favor and just give Pierre at SBD a call and than make the decision for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
