Well, today I would like to break from the norm and give a review of one of my Master String Builders. I recently became acquainted with Shane Teel, owner of Twisted X Bowstrings. After speaking on the phone a few times, Shane offered to make me one of his custom string and cable sets to try on my Hoyt Carbon Element G3. I accepted and we began the back and forth discussions on colors, and other options. Now let me say first Shane is very knowledgable when it comes to the string building process and went above and beyond with me to get everything just the way I wanted it. After deciding on color options ( which was more me being non-decisive than Shane) I confirmed Gold,Florescent Orange with a black pinstripe. Shane got to work making the set and I got to day dreaming about their arrival. Upon receiving them, just the looks of them in the package got me excited to get the install completed. Due to work and other obligations it took a few days, but I finally got them installed. As a tuner I demand precision from my string builders (this makes my job a little easier as not having to "monkey" with off specs of strings and cables), this precision was apparent right out of the package. Specs were dead on and only required 1 twist to the buss cable to set the cam sync where I prefer it. Shane's decision for clear servings was also a hit! The color combo and pinstripes just "flow" around the entire bow. I have had the Twisted X set installed and have been shooting them like crazy over the last few weeks ( for those of you in or close to PA it's been between the rain drops! LOL) and my initial thoughts were confirmed... Nothing but the highest quality and workmanship went into this set. There is zero peep rotation and they are rock solid in performance as well as appearance! I have had the pleasure of being associated with some of the best string makers in the business and now I have added another. Here at Bears Den we are proud to announce that from this moment on we will be offering Twisted X bowstrings as an option for your next tune. Check out our web page www.bdprecision.wix.com/bearsdenprecision and tells us what you think. Then make arrangements to have your bow tuned here, or go to Shane's FB page and get in touch with him to place an order! You will truly be amazed!
