Who Makes The Best Strings?
I know this has alot to do with personal opinion, but whats everyones choice for the best string maker. I have used Winners Choice for 3 years and am thinking about trying others, not that I`ve ever had a complaint about Winners Choice. I am just thinking about trying something different.

RE: Who Makes The Best Strings?
I don't have any experience with them but several of my friends rave about the GAS Strings from pro shooter Eric Griggs.
Best strings I have ever seen are the one's Stewart Bowman makes for my Accu-Riser II bows.

RE: Who Makes The Best Strings?
I agree give Gibblet an e-mail ,I have a set of his string and cable's on now and there as good as you can expect ,but better than most .I've gottern another set ordered from him right now for a friend .The craftsmanship is great and his serving is even better ,I'd give him a try ,at half the price of these top end string companies ,his quality and customer relation's is second to none.
Here's Gibblet's e-mail

well, i just finished my first 3 color set. red, orange, and yellow with red serving. they look good, colors are nice and separate, but they'd look a lot better if my bow wasn't camo. man that was a lot of work. probably be easier when i do your's nubo. i've got a surprise for you too. i think you'll like it - oh 2 surprises. hehehehehehehehehehehehe you'll have to wait and seehehehehehehehehe.

RE: Who Makes The Best Strings?
That's not a question I can correctly answer--but what I can say is the George Bowman strings, made here in Canada, have come a far way.
His prices are good and the strings/cables have really improved over the years.

I agree ampahunter,I have always used Winners Choice but gave the bowman strings and cables a try and I am truely impressed.
I would like to try out Gibblets strings and cables though,maybe when a new set is in order
I got my string and cable in red and blue and man they look good

Just got a Vapor Trail on my AR and I've been shooting off it for two weeks with zero creep stretch or any other discernable movement in the cables and the string. Serving shows now sign of wear. I like it so far.

RE: Who Makes The Best Strings?
There are lots of guys out there putting together good hand-made strings. They can use the same materials and construction technique is usually similar. I would look at the guarantee carefully and buy from someone with a fair price.
