Resurrecting my High Country Trophy Hunter

I am just getting into making strings/cables for my trad bows. I have an old (1988) HCA Trophy Hunter compound that has the original custom FastFlight string and FF cable system installed by HCA when I bought my bow new. Needless to say I am not going to shoot this bow until I get some new strings and cables on it. How much should I assume that the original FF cables and string have stretched over the years. The original serving is in pretty bad shape and the string material is fuzzed pretty bad. I shot the heck out of this bow back in the day. So when measuring for the new stuff can I assume a certain amount of stretch on the original setup? If so, how much? Does anybody happen to have original cable / string measurements? HCA no long supports or has information available for this bow so I'm kind of casting into the wind for information. Thanks for any help or information. Tom

Thanks for your reply Steven. A small group of local shooters back in the early 1990's were using HCA Trophy Hunters and Sniper models with great success. We had a great time going to the local 3D outdoor shoots in Ohio. I'll send off an email to TTT and see what they say. Tom
