Considering all the hype they get and most of the results I've seen I consider them the junk of the industry. I replace them ASAP and would never even consider them as replacements. That's what Gibblet is for.

If my memory serves me, I had zebra zs twist strings that came stock with my bow. I left them on there forabout 3years, at least, and took a pile of deer using it. Of course, I don't spend much time target shooting and I don't do any competitive shooting, I just hunt - a lot. So I'd doubt that it got 200 shots per year on it. All my free time goes into scouting with 4-5 afternoonsshooting my broadheads and making sure that everything is in working order.

I think the Zebra string is what I had on my bow when I dropped it, too. It took a 25-foot freefall into the ground, landing squarely on the camand the string never frayed or broke.

After a few years ofrarely waxing the string and weeks of hanging in the tree exposed to frost/snow/rain/heat, it started to fray and I replaced it with something new one over theoff-season. It wasn't that bad, but I just like to be 100% sure, so Ihad my buddy make mea newset of strings and cables.

I never had any issues with stretching or strands breaking, and trust me when I say that I don't baby my bow, and I have it maxed out onweight (76-78#).

So I guess I'd give the zebra string a good review for hunting purposes. It never failed me.

I have seen some Zebras that were very good while others have sucked. Sadly the strings are not as good as their bows. I just don't get the fact they can't seem to get the quality & low stretch that other companies are getting.
