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
I no longer offer served on cat whiskers. I haven’t been able to find a supply of good material in bulk form. If I find a different supply I have to test them on a sting. I have to leave it out in the sun and then put them up to a test of time. All this is a big pain for something that just does not help anyone kill a deer. A string with cat whiskers maybe more pleasurable to shoot but it will make zero difference in hunting. If you think some sound reduction will make a difference in deer hunting, you’re wrong. I am happy to discuss this over the phone.
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.
**I do not make strings for TwinStrike bows**
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. On Bulldog models, the correct braceheight is 2” between the string and the end of the mainframe.
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 4 choices of string material for you to make. There is Force 10, Astroflight or Xs2 for any bow. Because Xcel has Vectran it should only be used in Exo series bows or a Matrix bow but excluding the 405. I do not make strings for carved tipped limbs.
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.
Medium brown is no longer available
Xs2 string colors for Micros and the Matrix 405 - Medium brown is no longer available. This material is soft shooting but takes 50/60 shots to stop creeping. You’ll find yourself adjusting this string only a couple of times a year.
Xcel string colors for Matrix (excluding the 405) and Exo series bows. This has some Vectran in it which increases string stability. It takes less than 50 shots to stop creeping.
