    How is this done, and how do you make two color strings. I have an Apple Archery string jig. I would like to learn to make my own strings, but I have no idea where to start. I have a Guide Series Tec Hunter Elite bow with a big single cam.
    any and all help would greatly appreciated.

    Cables are 35 1/2
    string 92 13/16
    70#
    29" draw

    Buy the Apple basic string making video. It covers the basics from square one. Then do a search here and over on Archerytalk.com and read some of the threads. There's a ton of good info.
