I just got my new string from Gibblet installed its a thing of beauty. I took all the measurments of the ata and brace height;etc.With the new string.My brace height is the 3/8 of an inch more. The ata is the same. It was a real bear to pull back with the new string also. I wonder whats up?? It shoots ok

I need to second the props to Gibblet. I have been through three sets of strings on my LX due to wear on the hard edge of the cam. I haven't written for about three months since I got it and I have to say that the quality compared to cost is outstanding. No wear what so ever and the bow has been locked-in ever since I put the new string on. There is nothing like having confidence in your equipment and all my bows will only wear Gibblet's strings from here forward. I only wish I had taken the advice of many on this forum before spending the money on other, poor performing custom string makers. I would be happy to reccomend his work, product, and customer service over any other maker.

John definately has a knack for doing thing's right the first time ,and as for quality ,i don't think there's another string maker out there who can do it any better .I've used severel string's from John in the past couple of season's ,not because i needed them ,but just because John alway's has a way of surprising me .
He's the best and he'll be the only one that biuld's my string's in the future .

Okie !

If your having problem's and aren't quite sure on how to approach it ,just call John He'll be more than happy to assist you with the problem.

I just installed a set of Gibblet's string's on my buddy's bow they went on so sweet with very little adjustment's .He was more than happy .Again John has done another excellent job.
