Full description and what we offer
UnBound Archery isn't a mass-production facility. Nick and Shayla Dawa run this operation as a family business where every string gets the attention of people who actually hunt and shoot 3D competition. Their passion comes through in how they talk about the craft—this isn't about moving volume, it's about making gear that performs.
They use Bloodline Fiber technology, specifically the VEC99 material, paired with a patent-pending coating they developed in-house. Here's why that matters:
| Service | Turnaround | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Custom Compound String Sets | 1-2 weeks | From $160 |
| Mathews Pre-Built (Ready to Ship) | In stock | From $100 |
| Urgent Build Time | 3-5 days | $99 |
| Single String | 1-2 weeks | $80 |
| Cable Only | 1-2 weeks | $50 |
They also stock Mathews pre-built strings for immediate shipping if you need something fast. Their custom builds allow for special requests—different nock fits, custom serving locations, specific lengths. Just email them with details.
Beyond strings, they carry: - Center serving replacement ($34.99) - D-Loop/Drop-Away loop material—4ft ($9.99) - 3/16" peep sights ($6.99) - STRING MAX—extends string life ($19.99) - Speed nocks (included with builds that call for them) - UnBound branded gear (t-shirts, snap-back hats, jerseys, stickers)
Nick Dawa discovered bowhunting as an adult and immediately got hooked. Beyond hunting, he's invested years in 3D archery competition and has taken formal classes on self-bow building and compound bow technical skills. He credits target archery with helping him understand the "nuts and bolts" of form and equipment.
Shayla Dawa came to archery more recently but with equal intensity. She's mastered the technical side and harvested her first buck—an experience that deepened her respect for the animals and the precision required in the sport.
They use Baker Archery Products for their string-building equipment. According to Nick, Butch Baker literally mastered the tools for manual string building. He hand-makes and welds everything in the US and has been doing it for decades. Nearly every string builder uses his products. It's a small family business run by a hard worker who paved the way for modern manual string building.
Mission-Driven Company — UnBound was founded on faith-based values: Christ as Lord and Savior, uncompromising quality, and exceptional customer service. It shows in how they operate.
Strings are consumable products like vehicle tires—eventually they need replacing. Generally, UnBound strings last several thousand shots. Factors that affect longevity include bow storage and transport, climate, and facial hair contact. Heavy fiber breakdown is the indicator that replacement is needed.
They offer a 1-year warranty against serving separation and peep rotation from date of purchase.
