Ordering — Boo Custom Strings

This site is currently under construction. Please be patient

Because of the time of the year, I can no longer give a timeline for string orders . Any orders coming in now will be filled in a few months. This includes reserving. If you are in need of a string I suggest you get in touch with Danny Miller in Ohio. Danny is Excalbur’s string maker and can only be reached by phone 740 483 2312. You can buy an endless loop string like the one that came on your bow or one of his Flemish strings.

This is the order form for strings. Other items I may sell can be requested by email. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about your order. Flemishstrings@gmail.com

Any and all corrections must be done by cancelling the original order and resubmitting a new order. This includes any contact info, color changes, serving length, contact info etc. There are no exceptions.

For the US and Canada, all strings are $50.00 USD and include shipping with a tracking number. Because of increased costs of shipping with a tracking number, the price of a string is $65.00 USD for most countries outside of Canada and the US. The price includes reserving (at the cost of return postage) for the lifetime of the strings to the original purchaser.

Payment is by Paypal. If you are in Canada payment is by EMT.

When you submit your order I will email it back to you so that you can check for accuracy. Please check your spam box within a day and reply to the email so that you will see my email when the string is done.

Reserving is free for the lifetime of the string. Postage is not covered by me. Postage into the US is $10.00 USD. In Canada I will send the string back as oversized mail @$5.00 CDN and if you want tracking I can give you an estimate.

What bow is this for? Exact model please. If your bow is a Vixen or Exocet see notes below this form.

Which string? Force 10, Xs2 or Astroflight.

Pick 2 colours. My strings are 2 colour strings. Available colours for each string material are below this order form.

Serving length. Choose between 4" and 6". I recommend 5.25"

Order form notes. This is where you can tell me how many strings or any special requests.

Cat whiskers? Black only. I will not install them on Micro bows as they are not effective. On Matrix bows they do lower noise a minor amount but not nearly as much as Exo series bows. Added cost is $19.00

Are you a returning customer? If not, where did you hear about me?

Once you hit the submit button I will send you the form to verify accuracy in a day. Please check your spam box.

Excalibur’s brace height guide can be found by going to the bottom of Excalibur’s first page - click downloads - at the next page that shows scroll to the bottom and click string & brace height guide or you can click this link https://excaliburcrossbow.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Excalibur-Crossbow-String-Guide-Updated-2.15.2022.docx

Good brace height for any Matrix or Micro is between 1/4” to 3'/8” between the bumpers and the string. There is no difference in how your bow behaves when your brace height is 1/4” or 3/8”. On Bulldog models, the correct braceheight is 2” between the string and the end of the mainframe. As your string gets less than 1/4” to the bumper your bumpers will start to be damaged by the string impact.

They are rare, but some older Vixens and Exocets have flat risers. Bows with flat risers take a different length string. Flat riser limbs are parallel to each other. Most Exo series bows have limb forward design. If you are in doubt, send me a picture of your bow unstrung from above so that I can see the attitude of your limbs. I do not make Dacron material so I do not make strings for carved tipped bows.

When you are considering different string materials keep in mind that the differences in characteristics are small. One string material is not vastly better than the other. For what I need Force 10 is my pick.

There are 3 choices of string material for you to make. Force 10, Astroflight or Xs2 are good for any bow. The differences between the materials are minor and I always choose Force 10 on any of my bows.

String colours below as specific to the materials you choose. I cannot edit your order. If you make a mistake and choose a colour that I do not have I will delete your order and ask you to resubmit.

Force 10 colours are; Flo yellow, OD green (dark), brown, grey/silver, flo green, red, black and blue. Sorry, no pictures. This is the material that Excalibur used for their strings before they switched to Mercury 2. They switched only because BCY stopped making Force 10. Mercury 2 is good but it has it’s challenges. Force 10 stops creeping in 15 shots or so and afterwards is quite stable. If you do not have a preconceived opinion on any string material, pick Force 10. It is by far the most practical string I make. Force 10 is the material that I use for my bows.

Astroflight colours are; flo yellow, flow orange, flow red, brown, metallic beige, yellow and black. I have this material in limited quantities. Sorry no pictures. Astroflight is a good material. It is slightly lower in noise than Force 10 and is slightly slower. There seems to be a cult following to this material.

Xs2 String colors are; Black, OD green, blue, metallic beige, mountain berry, red, flo green, gray, flo purple, flo yellow, orange, flo pink. This material is softer shooting and takes 50/60 shots to stop creeping. You’ll find yourself adjusting this string only a couple of times a year.
