put one on my hoyt and it shot even better than the original excellence. great way to revive a used bow.   :twocents: i think i payed $115 for string, bus cable and all installed. you can pick your own colors if you like as well. my cousin's bow looked bad ass with red and black twist string

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

I put them on my bow last year.  Seems to me that it made it shoot like new again.

I dont think that it will make your bow shoot any better, but they are good strings.  I bought a set for 85 bucks and installed them myself.

Crunchy is probably right about them not making a bow shoot better.  But if your string is stretched quit a bit they will be better.

They are a great string, they last a long time, and don't stretch out, so there is no need for a peep with the rubber tube.

I replace the WC string on my Bowtech after several years with gibblet string.  His string is the same quality at a lower price.  But the WC is a very good string.  If you're curious, here is his info:

winners choice are awesome and when I was selling that is all I pushed, But there is a new outfit now and it is called BuckNasty Strings.  These are without a doubt the best strings I have ever shot.  Zero stretch and truly a work of art.

I highly recommend gibblet (aka BuckNasty) Strings.
