Vapor Trail!!

Hello:

I use Vapor Trail TS-1, and will until something better comes out.

Before the TS-1, I used Winners Choice 8125, before that 450+, and 452. I've been using Vapor Trail TS-1 for months now, shooting + /- 100 arrows a day. That means I've fired several thousand arrows thru this set of strings so far, and they are still looking new! String stretch is minuscule, and price of the strings and cables are about the same as a set Zebra strings. There is no extra charge for the colors of your choice, the servings are coated & served extremely tight, and your order is shipped the next day.

If Vapor Trail did charge as much as Winners Choice (they don’t, not by a long shot), I would still be buying the Vapor Trail. It is just a superior set up.

Compare the quality of both strings, and then look at the difference in prices between them. In my opinion “Vapor Trail” is a better product, at a much better price. These are some of the reasons I say this:

(1) Both come with very tight servings, nicely done!
(2) The string colors are vivid on both however; “Winners Choice”, will charge you an extra fee for custom colors of your choice. With “Vapor Trail” there’s never an extra charge for “Your Colors”.
(3) Vapor Trail strings are shipped the day after you order. Winners Choice, who knows?
(4) With “Vapor Trail” you will save on average 35-40 dollars per order.
(5) Generally speaking, TS-1 string material will send arrows downrange 4-8 fps faster than factory, more so for “Hoyt” & “Parker”

There are a lot of benefits in ordering Vapor Trail, but I’m sure you’ll find that out yourself.

Winners Choice does make a good product, but they charge far too much for their strings (While Vapor Trail depends on "word of mouth", W.C. spends BIG BUCKS for its advertising). If you have an old “Winners Choice” string lying around, or you have a friend who has one, compare it to a “Vapor Trail” string. You will see why I speak so highly about “Vapor Trail”.

These strings are a cut above in every way.

You can give GAS bowstrings a call and get personalized service from Eric Griggs. A professional shooter that builds strings for some of the top spot and 3D shooters. He knows what works well for various types of bows. He was also a Pro Hoyt shooter and knows the Cam 1/2 and it's requirements well.

Eric is building me a TS1 string right now, but recommends either Ultracam or 452X for the cables on Cam 1/2's and spirals.

GAS bowstrings, not a better guy around to deal with. I have 452X on my Ultra Tec with spirals and they are great.

Looks like I'm the lone ranger here that will put up a vote for 8125

I had the custom 8125 strings and cables on my XTec last year and loved them. But I shoot 8125 for everything, hunting, 3D, indoor, you get the picture.

Excellent speed and no creep (in my experience anyway).

I sold two bows to AT users here with the 8125 on it. Perhaps they'll speak up and vouch for the strings if they're reading this thread. Unless they've changed them of course

You can click on the Winner's Choice line in my signature and it will take you to their website. They have an outstanding warranty as well. They even warranty their strings and cables for serving separation, and that's a pretty bold statement about the quality of their strings and cables.

Try Mike Carter (Crackers) he is currently making me a set for my patriot. He chagers very small amount and I have heard nothing but praise for his strings. I have also heard from a couple league shooters that stone mountain strings are excellent.

 

[JAVI]

I make my own string..

If I didn't I'd use either Eric Griggs of www.gasbowstrings.com or Bob Waddell (AT member Brown Dog) BDA Custom Strings and Cables Double "B" Archery, Montgomery, TX

BDA Custom Strings and Cables

Javelina,

Does Double B make the BDA Strings or just sell them. I've been wondering if I need to replace the Hoyt strings and cables on the Vtec I just bought and saw this post. Double B is where I bought it. They took good care of me.

Do you make it that far south very often?

Vapor Trails Stings and Cables

When you are drawing on a trophy animal (or any animal for that matter), or on a dot at 20 yrds, or a 3d target what is the worst thing that could happen? You can't see through your peep right!!! Well several months ago I solved that and went to what I consider the best string on the market Vapor Trail Strings. Hands down this is the best strings and cables I have ever strung on a bow. I'm not saying other companys don't make fine strings, but Jarod and his crew are some of the best in the business in the service department. And their prices are hands down the best on the market. Here are some points to consider.

* "Vapor Trail" strings was rated No1 by "BowHunting Word" this year? No2 was "Winners Choice"

* Order one morning and it will be shipped out that day or the next business day

* Tons of colors to choose from ( at no extra charge for the colors you want )

* The tightest coated serving you can get on a string

* The TS-1 material that is used will increase arrow speed up to 10 f.p.s.

* String stretch is almost non existant after 1000's of shots

* Veteran pros Terry and Michelle Ragsdale have been using the Vapor Trail line of strings and cables for many years, setting countless National records and winning championships everywhere they shoot. -Truly proof of the consistency long term pros have come to expect and rely on.

Give Jarod a call @ 1-800-310-8110 he will get you set up with a the best string on the market for the best price.

Good luck with whatever you are drawing on!!!!!!
