I recently bought a crossbow. It is an entry levelto see if I want to try crossbow usage this fall. It is just a cheap 180 lb foldable limb recurve, "similiar" to a Barnett. I got it from Sportsmans guide. They do not sell strings and they cannot help me get another. Anyone know any online shops that make strings? If so, I would appreciate the help. Thanks.
I wondered about that myself. Oddly enought they are not tied down at all. You lay your strings past the ends of the loop serving and then the loop is served. I can only guess that the pressure applied by the serving compresses the bundle and the loop against the tip helps to hold it. Check out my thread on the endless loop jig. There is a link to a good site. I guess if one wanted to be AR about it the string maker could wrap the tag ends around the bundle a few times before serving but the way I explained it it certainly does not come loose.
Hope this helps!

I'm glad Dnk is solving your problem. I've seen those ads a million times, and am wondering what your imp[ressions of that bow are. I'm sure others here would like to know as well. Thanks
Where can I get custom crossbow strings?
