    most of their websites will tell you what the string materials are or what options they provide.

    My current strings are 100% Ultra High Mulecular Weight Polyethylene or UHMWP they call it Fury
    its kind of a fast sporty string

    America's Best uses BCY-X in their platinum strings which consists of 83% Dyneema which is made of UHMWP then they add Vectran which is what you see fraying in your strings, the hairy looking things
    I think the Vectran is supposed to make the string "softer" or quieter? someone verify that for me

    You can pick what material you want with us. We sell BCY products all the top of the line. Trophy, X, and 8190f all are great products.
    Trophy is a stable string material with gore fiber to help against fuzzing and moisture.
    X is a stable material with speed and durability
    8190f Speed, stability and low creep

    My experience with Winner's Choice.......poor. I bought a very nice used Prime Rival this spring that had nearly new Winner's Choice Platinum strings that the seller had $150 invested. When it arrived I looked them over closely and the servings on both cams was coming apart. VERY disappointed......so I called Mike a Catfish Customs and got a new set of his strings in Fury on the way. Been shooting them almost daily since April and there is NO serving issues.

    If customer service is important to you then go with bowstring depot. Hutch is always available and backs what he sells.

    I can speak for Fitz since our entire team is using ABB Platinum strings this year. I have a set on my Halon and getting ready to put a set on my Halon 32 next week. The quality of these strings is second to none and I have had ZERO peep rotation or creep on my Halon string. Literally haven't had to adjust anything or touch it since the day it was put on. Jerry and the crew at ABB are some of my favorite people to work with and they've gone above and beyond to answer questions, make recommendations and help out where they can. Honestly can't say enough good things about them and their products. Sponsor or not, they're the real deal.

    I like reading things like this, even though you are sponsored. I feel the same way about Bow String Depot. Just good folks and great strings. I think once you find a string maker you like and trust it helps remove one less worry from your setup.
