RE: Bow Strings
Send your bow to Carter's Archery and have him "crackerize" your bow. He makes his own strings and tunes the bows back to factory specs. He did my Bowtech Allegiance last year. His work is raved about on archerytalk.com and Iowawhitetails.com. Do a search yahoo for Crackerize and see for yourself.
I was in his shop recently and he get's bows from all over the country.
