    Hey all,
    I originally planned on waiting until the summer to restring my bow, but with the extreme amount of shots I generally take on a weekly basis I am beginning to realize this must be done sooner rather than later. I was looking at the Americas Best Bowstrings lineup, does anybody have any experience with their strings? I would hate to pay the money for the platinum strings with only 2 months left in season and have to restring the bow again halfway through next season. Any experience with speed changes, stretching, peep rotation, etc? Should I consider using one of their lesser quality strings for now and get the higher quality strings before season next year? Thoughts?

    What is an "extreme amount of shots"? Everything wears out eventually, sooner with lots of use.

    I guess I should have specified on that point, what is a lot for me may not be much at all for other people. However, throughout the season I will not shoot as much although I will still try and shoot at least every other day, but during the offseason, usually February through August and into september here in New Jersey, I will usually shoot several hundred arrows every week.

    I can't answer your questions about America's Best Bowstrings but I've heard good things. If you keep a good quality string waxed and clean you shouldn't have any trouble getting through next season or longer.

    If you're shooting a few hundred arrows a week I would plan on replacing your string every year or two, regardless of who made it. With that said ABB makes hands down the best string/cables I've ever used. I've never had a single issue with serving separation or peep rotation/creep. They're stable and rock solid from the minute you put them on your bow.
