I normally just up grade the same time and get a new bow. But I love the diamond black ice and won't up grade for a while.
I've never heard of them either, but maybe the rpice on-line is for a different string than they make for shops. Tailor Maid is a company like this. They make a higher quality string and then they make one that some shops use. Not having used their higher quality ones I will say that the ones in the shop I used to work for would not go on my bow, nor anybody else's if I have a choice. Pure crap so I would also question the quality of their "better" strings.
Me? I've used Prostrings, Winner's Choice, and Bucknasty (Gibblet on these forums). Considering the price I'll take Bucknasty. Winner's Choice is very very good, but too high for the quality. Bucknasty's were just as good at 2/3 the cost.
I'm about ready to get new ones and am probably going to try H&M. Heck, somebody has to be a guinea pig and I don't trust the answers from people on the internet. Those that are so adament toward one brand always throw up a red flag for me in that I question what they have tried to compare their favorite to. I'll do my own homework, thankyou. It's only money and it's not forever.
