Title: Bow string needed ASAP -- (Photo Added)
Post by: Teacher_of_the_Arcane on August 26, 2012, 03:36:00 PM

Hi All,

I've got a 1962 vintage solid glass youth bow, and if memory serves me, draws 25 pounds.  I need a string for it ASAP for a youth group shoot the first Friday in September.  Where can I get one??

If you put the AMO length of the bow on here it would speed things up.

Some will post stringmakers like Champion and some will offer strings, I'm sure.

Killdeer,

There are no markings left on the bow.  One of my younger brothers got it as a Christmas gift that winter, and it's been used although not damaged.

Tip to tip is 54 inches.....from the string groove on one end to the groove on the other (around the curve) is 53 1/4 inches.
