RE: Getting String Changed/UPDATED
See heres the issue. My Nova is an older Nova so it has the lead string holer things, not sure what they really call them. Will he be able to make one? Im sure he could. But again theres the cost thing, I cant really afford an overly expensive string. lets see some pics, costs, etc. I cant remember the legnth on my string, I can measure it andpost it.

If you are talking about RApids, i would go to Timberline. Have Jeff put it on for you. I just did the same thing and he did a great job. I would also add that the Gibblet string is the way to go. i could not be happier with mine. Took about 3 weeks to get, but worth the wait. I've only shot a hundred shots or so, but so far it has not moved at all. I was thinking my draw was too long, but after I got the new string, my pull was 5/8" less, so my old string had stretched that far. As a result, I shot my best score in 3D all year, a 272 out of 280, so i would say I'm happy with it.

Gibblet, what do you know about "no creep" (non-Dacron) strings tearing anchors off of steel cables? I've heard of this when fast flight strings first came out but haven't heard or seen any problems in years. (Most likely due to the rarity of steel cables these days.) But just to be safe I only put 450 strings on these rigs.
