He does amazing work, but be prepared to wait a long time! He has a waiting list you have to get on on Archery Talk.

I read all the stuff about him, but I just can't see his tweaking out the performance from a bow making the least bit difference in whether or not a critter I shoot at ends up dead.

Rybo Crackers has a little secret to his tuning of bows. Honestly He doesn't do anything real special to your bow to get the speed. All I will say about his secret is. LESS STRANDS

Honestly Germ save your bucks
That's what I was afraid his secret was.

Crackers is very talented when it comes to working with bows. He took Bowtech parts from several bows and put them together to come up with a bow that had a very nice brace, good speed, and great shootability. I think he called it the Declaration or something like that.

With the tuning though you may be better off doing it yourself. I know any time I have anything done to my bow at the shop the first thing I do is get it home and re-tune it because nobody knows it better than me.

Besides, the value of the newstrings isn't that great considering the GTO comes with a quality string stock.

I don't think anyone but the person shooting the bow can properly tune it. I mean, he can do some tricks and work some magic to enhance performance, but the shooter ultimately has to tune the bow. The difference in grip alone would cause differences, and ......you're a leftie. He's not.

And if the secret is fewer strands........ummm, that I would be skeptical of. Apparently it works, but at what cost? String durability? I don't know, just thinking outloud.

LMAO....well, it would be pretty inexpensive actually. There would be no guarantee on the work, and hell.........I can't even promise it'll be shootable when you get it back.....

Don Take a look at the strings between the Drenalin and the new Drenalin LD. Thats how they were able to keep the same speed between those 2 bows. They just took out a few stands from the string and presto you have the same speed on a longer ATA bow and higher brace height. We have checked this at the shop I work. Actually sat down and counted them. and If memory serves me right the LD was about 2 strands less or so
