Not only by making strings you can save money, but you get to customize your string color and material to suit your needs!

Does it really make a difference if you use lefty or righty string? Other than the string loosening with every throw I couldn’t’ see it making too much of a difference.

Nope… the only difference is the tension change like you mentioned… I’d rather have a loose string than a tight string tbh :wink:
