On the Winners Choice strings. It has all I have used for the last several years but I am not happy with the string I got from them last year. I have liked them because of the durability of the serving. Put one on my Sentinal last August and within a month the serving at the nock point was showing a lot of wear. I'm also getting a lot of fraying of the string and the serving is separating where it rolls off the top cam, and where it hits the string stop.
Not happy with this string and don't know if I got a bad one or if the quality of the WC strings is declining. For the price not worth it this time around. Going to replace this one with a Vapor Trail.
Would be interested to know if anyone else has had issues with the newer WC strings.

Thanks for the help everyone. I will check out the Vapor trail strings as well as the others just to check prices. Anybody ever tried those Zebra strings or whatever? I havent heard much about them good or bad

Thanks Guys! I did answer all Pm's this morning. I have used and sold several custom strings included but Not limited to VaporTrail, Winners Choice, & BuckNasty.
I don't have anything bad to say about any of them but IMHO there is No doubt in my mind that Vapor Trail are the best I've had experience with.
I am usually always running some kind of a special and right now we have a special including Halo serving. If you have Not already, feel free to PM me for any details.

You owe it to yourself to check out Bucknasty. I ordered one and took it to my pro shop. The guy was skeptical since he'd never heard of it before, but when he looked up the specs, he said he couldn't believe the quality of the string for the price. In fact, he said "If I were going to make a string, this would be exactly what I'd make." He also said they were without a doubt better than Vapor Trail. Had mine on for a year now and it shows no signs of wear whatsoever. I've heard mixed review of Zebra, a lot of people think they're crap.

Their Customer Service is the best I've dealt with and that was the deciding factor for me. I won't handle a product very long if I can Not depend on delivery and/or customer service.
