Yes keep in mind you just blew $70.

There are better strings and cables on the market for that sort of money.

For around $75 gibblet would make you a string and cable with the new Halo serving.

He has already done one set for my Black Ice with the Halo serving and he is doing another set for my Commander.

Be careful what you ask for... you don't always get what you pay for and these strings are a good example.

You should be aware that the Zebra string is going to creep so keep an eye on your tuning and peep rotation (I'd suggest using a peep aligner/rubber tubing). I wouldn't bother doing any fine tuning/sight adjustments until after at least ahundred shots.

I love the Zebra Strings. You invested your money well. When I go to replace mine, it will be a Zebra String.

Too much hype and not enough results from "Customized" strings these days. Everyone will tell you that he/shehas a better string than you.

You done good. Wise choice.
