They never did put a string on an 01 patriot.
Mainly because they where not introduced until 02

As far as the WC, SM strings go I did have serving seperation on my 02 Pat but have had no problems what so ever with either of my 03 bows which have the SM strings and with close to 15k shots through each.
I do know that when the string needs changing I will be putting a SM string back on
