Griz Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I'm going to get a new string and cable for my Switchback and not real sure which way I want to go yet. I have read alot about the strings that Bucknasty on AT makes. So I guess I'm basically looking for some input on them... Who all has a set of them... How do you like them... How are they holding up... Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... I have a set on my bow, have shot it probably 400 times since they got installed, still like new, awesome serving jobs, you will be happy. If you look in his new thread over at AT my bow is in a picture and you can see the work he does, he is great. He picked the colors and what to use for my bow as its a hunting bow and he opted for material to hold up for hunting. John is great at making them, you will not be disappointed.

Turkeygirl Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... I ordered a set of strings and cables for my bow from him. Still waiting for them, but he was a little behind in his work. All I've heard was great things about him so I'm looking forward to seeing his work.

PAbowhunter4life Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... If I decide to take the stock strings off of my Drenalin I'll be putting Bucknasty's on it. I had a pair on my Switchback and absolutely loved them. They're every bit as good as Winners Choice (which I had on my Outback & SQ2), only you don't pay for the name and packaging.

AdvantageTimberLou Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... That's not bad at all, Bucknasty does make a great string though. I think he is at $60.00 a set now. More colors may be slightly higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deadeye270 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... I've had both VT and Bucknasty. You'll love either one. They are both made about as good as you can make a string. I will say I like the job bucknasty does with the servings around the end loops.

I also sent him a PM after 2 weeks just to make sure he got my information and an idea when I would get them. Don't be afraid to PM John, he will get back with you and give you a timeframe. I would say another week would be about right. They are worth the wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dosse Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings...

I am in the market for new strings and cables and may have just found my supplier. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Re: Bucknasty Bow Strings... i have a ultratec i just bought and it has a set of brand new strings called Wolfden strings. they look very good and seem to be as good as winners choice. i have never shot them before, but im going to give them a good work out this summer. they are also about the same price as bucknastys strings. Wolfden just came out offering custom strings on the net last year. but they have been making custom strings for lots of years forprivate people. if these shoot as good as they look im sure i will like them. i will keep everyone up to date on them.
