Longbow stringers

[fflintlock]

Anyone have an opinion on these bow stringers, I was thinking on getting one. I've always just used the ole, leg through the bow thing.
Does that efect a longbow like it does a recurve ?
Thanks

Selway Limbsaver!

Bows are too expensive to risk messing up a limb thataway.

You should always use a stringer. There is too much at risk doing it the old fasioned way. You could break a limb or put a severe twist in it.

I like the selway, the one with a cup on one end and the chunk of rubber that goes on the limb for the other end.
The two cup types have bloodied my nose for the last time.

I have a couple of old stringers, cups on both ends, they just scared me using them, I guess it was because I did'nt have full controll of everything, I don't know, it just seemed risky.
I was looking at the Selway over at 3 Rivers site and was thinking on getting that one.
Figured since I had a new bow, might as well start out right.

The very best stringer comes from Thunderhorn bows. Look up their website. It is a very clever design, and allows for both longbows and recurves. It is very well made and handsome looking too.

The Trunderhorn stringer goes for $11.00 if I remember correctly.

What is a Big Nose, if I am not getting to personal.

I used to Work with a Crusty Old Engineer, That had Really Been All over the World for the Company we worked for.
 Of course I was a Snot-Nosed 17 y.o., Fresh Outta High School Draftsman, and  THIS  was My Very  FIRST REAL JOB ,the First Words out of him after he had walked into the Office Were  "WHAT A HOOD SCOOP YOU HAVE!!" He was one of  THE  Best Engineers I have ever worked with.     hahaha

Oh Yeah, Thank You for the Pricing!! I Appreciate it!!

The Thunderhorn looks like it works exactly like a Selway, just a tad different cosmetically.

If anyone is interested, I stock the Selway bow stringers, both longbow and recurve.  $10 shipped.
