worlds best strings sends to Edmonton promptly. 60x is also a good choice with online ordering.

John made a nice one for my sons Diamond Atomic. Got to pick his own colours so neon green and yellow/black it is. Price was really good as well but can't comment on stretch as he only draws 20lbs so not really an issue yet

I had a worlds best on my last bow and quality was good as well but think Johns were a little better on servings etc.

I've run worlds best for the last several years. 0.00 stretch and now on its third season, looks new. Pretty happy with those results.

Heck of a lot better than the 1 year I was getting with Mathews strings on my old bow.

Installed and tuned by a shop, usually around $150.

I was told $200 in Lloyd, which I was told was a great deal by the guy selling them. He wanted $99 just for the string. Another $99 for the cable.

I found factory replacement for my bow for $35 USD.

I had such high hopes.

String and cables are sold as "sets" most times, and should be replaced as sets too. A 60X set will run around $100-120 USD shipped.
