So you are saying Parker is not quality. Well, I guess I'd have a hard time arguing that with the problems that I encountered with my Parker. But, I'm sure you could get some people riled up with that. FWIW, I have no problems with Hoyt. Plus I would agree that there are a lot of companies out there that try to get the best string on the bow. However, when it is time to replace one, getting a custom string made for the particular bow IMO is the best bet.
