Default New Bowstring Question

If you are going to replace your bowstring do you prefer a factory made one like Zebra, or one that your pro shop make for you?

custom strings are much better!
go with wolf Den or pro strings
they are made with TS1 string material which will give you an increase in speed and no stretch. and very affordable.

I like made strings, not factory, especially not zebra. Love mathews bows, hate their strings. Get one made for your bow, its worth the investment.

I'm not too wild about Zebra's either for the price. Look at Sone Mountain strings for about the same money.

Definitely a custom string. Costs are better for the same quality.
