He's the best; but now has a jjjjjjjjob! ugh. So those of us who are string challenged have to find a new source.

Rod had emailed me last week, and since he is working too much, he reccommended LBR, here on Tradgang. (Chad Weaver of Chek Mate Recurves).  I received one of Chad's strings today, and it is extremely well crafted, and Chad is a great person to do business with.

Matt...How long did it take to get your string.  I mailed my payment a couple of weeks ago and have not heard a thing.

I also ordered my string about two weeks ago.  Chad was in the process of moving his shop, and he apoligized for the delay.  I would give him a call, or shoot him an email to make sure he received your payment.

Thanks for the kind words ! I do, in fact have a new job, thats been keeping me away from home, way too many hours....so I finally have reached the point, that I'm forced to say...I'm not taking any orders  :(  . I do have several backlogged strings to finish up and get out ASAP.

I have for some time, wanted to spend more of my  time on the bowcase business.....plus 3D season is right around the corner, so its back to practice!

I have enjoyed meeting lots of good folks in the course of building strings... and other than being SWAMPED most of the time.....I've enjoyed every minute!
