    Well you know the old saying"if it ain't broke don't fix it" I will need strings in a few months for my older hoyt and I have looked at other strings and read reviews etc.
    But the ones on Hoyt bows, are made bye Fuse I believe have been so good to me, peep is always straight etc. I think I will stay with them. Cheers Roscoe

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with Bowtech'a factory strings,
    I usually shoot them a year before I swap them....top notch! The fuse strings on my new Carbon Element on the other hand aren't impressing
    me and are being replaced ASAP with new Strict9 strings (after only a few weeks of shooting)!

    I would shoot Octane's again without hesitation though.

    As long as there's carbon in the air, there's hope!

    look at the reviews lots of people do not like worlds best. this is why i went with jbk strings. 24 month full warranty best in the business. go through donnybrook here on hbc

    ya donnybrook was very good at getting a hold of me once i started the thread the pricing is very good.. just wanting a few more reviews from others.. but they look great. i would like mine in black and red i think that would look good on my 350. just wish it was blacked out and not camo but still a great looking bow

    I was surprised when I read this about the Fuse strings, as mine have lasted so long and peeps stayed straight etc. How ever today at a 3-D shoot north of Parksville the fellow I was shooting with told me he has been replacing his every 6 months. His bow is an Alpha burner which has a more radical cam so maybe that has something to do with it. Cheers Roscoe

    Factory strings ... all factory strings .. are Crap IMHO ... a great custom set of hand built strings will go a long way.

    I love Worlds best on my Hoyts and Bowtechs ... But truth be told I went in a differant direction with my last couple of sets for my Elites ... I went through Donny to get the best 2 sets of 452x string and cable sets I have ever seen. Both sets have been on since August ... I have shot them in and sighted .. on my answer I have hunted ever so briefly with em ... On my Pure I shoot a 600 round twice/week minimally plus a bunch of fun stuff whenever I get a chance ... they still look brand new ... after shooting in the dust bowl this weekend ... they still look great
