    All new bow strings do not stretch. There are many string vendors who supply pre-stretched strings and cables that do not stretch or peeps rotate. I’ve bought Winners Choice for years, bit that is a personal brand preference, there are many others.

Had my shop retune and adjust the bow and I can tell a big difference. Shoots quieter and more dead in the hand. All new strings will stretch so have your shop double check when you start to see or feel changes. No charge from the shop. Thank you, Gateway Archery.

        Yes I agree I have had Winners Choice strings and the did not stretch. I will probably replace mine with WC ‘s. But I would say to expect stretch from most vender strings not custom strings.

          I know guys who buy an upgraded string and cable set with their new bow, save the factory as a backup and then tune.

          Many good brands (search TBH for names). I have had success with WC so don’t change. The same reason I’ve hunted with NAP Thunderheads for close to 20 years.

          Shoot straight, hunt hard.
