    I have a 2010 Hoyt Turbo Hawk that I bought new and havnt changed the stings and cables yet so at the end of the season ill have them installed but dont know anything about string and cables so looking for a little guidance on my string purchase. Im open to all suggestions. If there a fellow BHOD member with a respectable string company im always looking to help a fellow member get business

    I can't personally vouch for that hutch and son's fellow who posts on the board, but I plan on giving them a try when I need new strings.

    Winners Choice. 100% zero creep, never have serving issues, and a virtually no break in period.

    Vapor Trail does great work, we did have some issues with serving separation on the new H13 bear cam, though. Nothing serious. They are currently working on a solution.

    I put winner's choice string and cables on my katera, night and day difference.
    Don't know what was on there before , don't care, didn't like it. So far very pleased with winner's choice.
    I have also heard good things about vapor trail's strings.

    I currently have WC's on as well...they ain't cheap, but there was zero creep on my Alphamax. Much better than the original Fuse strings. Still going to give Hutch a try when I need to replace the WC's.

    He lives in Sabattus Maine. He has a large following of users on AT. JBK Bowstrings - custom bowstrings for any bow

    The thing that separates him from the rest is his customer service. I have seen it first hand the length he goes for his customers. Plus he has I believe a 24 month warranty on his strings.
