Contact MeanV here on this site. He can set you up with a good set of Vapor Trail string/cable. Then there's Bucknasty here also.

Barring that there are tons of people on WWW.archerytalk.com that make good strings. I started recommending H&M as they get good reviews and are really reasonable. Regular price is like $50/set, but Mike's running a special right now for around $40.

Used zebra string for a while. Held up nice. Archer's choice is very good too.

I didn't recommend Zebra for a very obvious reason known to experienced archers, many of them Mathews shooters.

I am constantly running specials on VaporTrail strings and cables. You can find strings a little cheaper maybe but you can't find any better

I agree that zebra string is a good option.

Vapor Trail is a very hard string to beat and I believe it is impossible to beat their customer service!!!
