Eric, you have any local archery 3-d shoots or other archery events in your local area?

That would be a great place to take some strings and  I bet you would have a line of people willing to test them...

BTW, tell us a little more about your strings, you looking to see if your strings are the same at others or you got a special way of doing things? Anyways, I hope you find some takers who are willing to report back to you on how your string performed... good luck and post some pictures if ya got them...

I only have 1 bow that I don't use fast flight on. I would be willing to use your string on it. I will chrono the bow with each string for you and see if there is a difference, I doubt there will be but we will see. Will send you a PM with the rest of my information.
