It's definitely not Zebra or Barracuda!

Do yourself a favor and get ahold of gibblet (bucknasty bowstrings).

There are quite a few good ones out there. The shop I work for sells most of the top brand names, but every time I personally work with a customer I order from John (Gibblet/Bucknasty) because his prices are better than any of the top names, and his service is much better. His strings are as good of quality as anything out there, and I believe he is the only person using Halo right now which I consider to be the best end serving material out there right now. I've got thousands of shots on an Apex 7 with his string/cable using halo material with no need for replacement, and these bows usually eat cables quickly.

Send him a PM here under the screen name gibblet. He will take care of you.....

Bucknasty is a good product as Winners Choice is too. I prefer Winners Choice as their customer service is second to none.

As good as Winners Choice customer service may be (I have never personally dealt with them)....I can say without a doubt John's service could probably match or exceedW.C.

I'm shooting Winner's Choice right now just because I get a GREAT deal on them through the shop I work for. I can't complain though, they've served me well.
