    Try Jay's Sporting Goods in Clare Mi. Don't have the number handy. I may have a second option if they can't help. You can also contact Bear Archery in Fla. let us know what you find out

    dirty rat

    do you need to know the info for them or do you already have it and just need strings and cables made? There are so many string makers out there that getting strings won't be the problem. If they are steel cables, you will have a problem finding someone that makes them.


    If you give lancaster archery a call am and sure they could get them for you.

    www.lancasterarchery.com

    if they can't

    then someone on www.archerytalk.com will either make them for you or will know someone who does.

    BTW, those aren't bad bows for their age, mine treated me pretty well, hopefully Dave's son is having a blast with it now.

    Thanks shoff,
    I actually found a shop that got me one last year and I ended up finding a "Lefty" at a flea-market that had a good cable on it. So, I own 3 of them now and the kids are slowly getting into it so I'm hoping they'll get some use this summer. I got the first one at 14, I'm 43 now and it still shoots fine for its age...And so do I[:0]I think!?!

    Thanks again,
