Ordered my Winners Choice Strings and Cables...
 
Hey guys,

I ordered the Winners Choice Strings and Cables for my Liberty today. I can't wait to get these on the bow and get it all tuned up! Turkey season is fast approaching and I want to get some serious shooting in before I take the bow out after them gobblers!

Now, should I replace the factory string silencers with the factory ones or should I get the new Super String Leech's?:)

Was there something wrong with the factory strings and cables?

Jason.

Why????????

My factory strings have been great so far with virtually no creep at all.

That's what I'm wanting to hear!
I'd hate to pay ~$650 for another new bow and then have to worry about replacing the strings/cable ASAP.[:-]

I'm hoping he just likes Winners choice mo-betta.

Sounds like BuckM has already been doing some serious shooting if his string and cables are already worn out[:o] The new strings look to be as good as the Winner's Choice on my'02 Patriot. I don't see how you could put that much wear on a Liberty's harness yet[&:]

I thought the string on my 03 Extreme Vft was better than a winners choice. no creep, after setting the timing, and still holding up strong after long year of shooting.

Its a status thing!!!
BM likes to shout brand names.:)

I can list his whole set up from memory i think

lets see....

04 Bowtech liberty
factory hush kit
custom stealth 4 inch stabilizer
fletcher tru peep
copper johns hunter
shakey hunter turned quick tune 3000
alpine soft loc
stabilizer enhancer in back
teflon slide
and now winners choice

How'd I do????

Sounds like a nice set up to shoot.

I haven't seen Bowtech's '04 strings yet, but the strings on my '03 dually were definately not Winner's Choice quality. And no, I don't like to "shout brand names". My dually was always creeping out of tune until I put on Winner's Choice.

You act as I said that to be a derogatory statement. He is proud of his bow and accessories. There's nothing wrong with that. You took my statement out of context.

If any offence was taken I sincerly apoligize to BM and everyone else. No offence was intended.

Well I guess BM just wan't to have a spare set around, nothing wrong with that.I think I'll be doing the same for when I go on the moose hunt this fall.

Whats string creep?

RE: Ordered my Winners Choice Strings and Cables...
 
I have not had a problem with the creep on the '04 string/cables but have had some serving separation. No problem as I just reserved it myself. I am relatively impressed with the new material.

I will just chalk this one up to Jason's preferance for trying new things....:)

I see nothing wrong with going with a known factor. I always re-strings my new bows. I make my own and I know exactly what to expect from my own strings. It's not being made by a worker who migh have a hangover or someone who might be daydreaming when they made mine. Even if my bow came with a Winners Choice string, I'd replace it. It would make a good emergency backup string, and everyone should have one of those anyway. ;)

I just bought a 2004 Mighty Mite and after shooting it for the last four days I can already see that the serving is seperating which probably means the string is streching. I will be getting a set of winners choice as well and quickly!!!

Hey guys,

Sorry that it has taken this long to reply, I have had bad computer problems.

As far as why I am getting new Winners Choice string and cable it isn't because of string stretch! These things havn't moved! But, as some of you may remember, I had 5 or 6 spots where I was having serving seperation! Well, this past Sunday while fine tuning the bow, my friend and I had to move the nock down as it was set way to high (the bottom of the arrow sat about 1/8" above the top of the berger button holes)! Well, when we moved the nock down we noticed that the guy at the shop had over-tightened the nock and he entirely split the serving!

I am getting the Winners Choice because I don't want to have to worry about my strings! The Winners Choice strings that I put on my MightyMite worked flawlessly and I trust them.

I will be reserving the factory string and cable and have them as back up strings.

The 04 strings are great, but the serving isn't as good as it could be!

buckeye, you hit my set-up right on the head!:D
