Default Winner's Choice string problem

After paying for a Winner's Choice string and installation, I picked up my bow from my local 'pro' shop tonight and hurried home to install my 'No-peep' and shoot it. I had to pull the bow a about 10 times to adjust the No-peep. Each time the serving around the string would slide apart below the nock point. After each pull, I would push the serving windings back together. By the end of 10 pulls, the serving and nock point had drifted upwards about 3/8". I can push the entire serving upwards or downwards with solid finger pressure

I am suspicious of the pro shop because I had a problem there before and Winner's Choice has such a solid reputation. Then again, I don't see how you can mess up a string install.

Maybe it is a bad string??????? Maybe he charged me for a WC and installed soemthing else?????

My father and I both shoot with Winner's Choice strings and cables and we're both very happy with ours. I can't say as I've ever heard of anyone having this type of problem with their strings. Have you contacted your pro shop and or Winner's Choice?

my winners choice is bullet proof so i guess your pro shop needs a call from you.

that string is warrantied against that. thing is you'll have to send it back to the factory and have it done and you're looking at a 2 week turnaround time. if you want to send it to me i'll fix it and you won't have that problem again - and i'll send it back the next day - no charge.

Sure your pro shop isn't pulling a fast one? I'd verify its a Winner's Choice with someone that is familiar with their product, perhaps WC themselves. I'm sure they will correct the problem, either by replacing the string or "fixing" the pro shop.

Of course anything is possible, but what your describing doesn't sound anything like a Winner's Choice string to me. Only one way to find out....
