Custom bowstrings

Does Josh Sowerby (Oliverstacy) still make bowstrings. I have ordered from him in the past but can't find his ordering info anywhere. Does anyone have his website or phone #, it would be appreciated..

Thanks Alan

I pretty sure I read last spring that he stopped making them. Not sure why. Give Chad Weaver a call. Great strings.

I've got strings from both http://hcbstrings.com/ and http://www.tenringstrings.com/ and was very happy with both. im sure Chad makes a great string as well. Lots of talented people here on tradgang.

Edit: I forget but I have also got strings made by Rocky Mountain Specialty gear that were also awesome. Choosing a string maker is maker is hard with so many good options.

I called Allen at Ten Ring strings last week and he bent over backwards to get me a string before he left for a shoot. I had it in 3 days and the string is awesome ! Great product & Great service !

I have got strings from SBD, Ten ring and Chad. Lately I been loving the BCY X material Chad uses. No stretch in our AZ. 110 degree heat.

I wouldn't have any string stretch with Dacron in 110 degree heat because I would be indoors under the air conditioning and my bow would be with me!

I have purchased strings from Steve at Simply Traditional. They are great strings and the customer service can't be beat!

Tenringstrings gets my business. Super fast and great service

I am going to risk a stupid question here... How many ways are there making a bowstring? As far as I know, we have endless loop and flemish twist. Different materials of course, but what makes one string stand out from the crowd?
