Try George Bowman Custom Strings (www.bowmancustomstrings.com)

I had the same problem with my zebra. George' s string was about $70 and worth every penny.

Winner' s Choice are nice strings too. I think they are way over $100 now - not positive.

I do not think you can get a better string than George Bowman.

I had good luck with Winner' s Choice strings and cables for last 2 years. They last forever. I talked to George also ( Bowman String ) and he sound like he knows the string business too. WC about $100 string and cable. Bowman' s $80.

I stick with WC they never let me down period. I plan to order one next week for my new bow.

I got a Winners Choice for my Parker 31. It works great and has not streched as of yet. They are a little expensive but if it doesn' t strech and holds up well it is definitly worth it!!!!!

I make my own strings and it' s not that hard. That said the Winners Choice strings are good, but you can often find someone that makes strings as good for a lot less money.

I own two Mathews and have WC cable & strings on
both bows. Definitely worth the money IMO. I have
mine made up with BCY 8125.
