FirstString - US company with online ordering, these guys know Prime strings and build them for many of Prime's top pros, Cousins, Tedford etc. Quick to ship.

Thats Corey Skinner, correct? If so you are right, his strings are on my old bow and holding up great after several YEARS of use! I'd love a set on this bow, so I've sent him a message to see if its possible, hear he gets booked up pretty hard.

60X Custom Strings likely has a ready made set for that bow. Fast and under $100 CAD shipped IF they have them in stock. Code : AT10 will get you 10% off.

Was hoping, but unfortunately shows no Prime stuff in stock. Thanks for the suggestions guys, currently checking into them, I'm sure someone will be able to set me up.

This will be my last set of worlds best strings. The last set the servings started to separate well before 500 shots. Newest set with black servings, which I was told would be more durable, same thing serving separation after a few hundred shots. Time to try something else.

Default 60x

Spoke with 60X strings this morning and they are 3 days to make your strings and get them shipped. Then it depends on the shipping you choose and how long they take to clear customs.

If you registered your bow, PRIME offers strings for life. Its supposed to be every 2 years I think but if you call customer service and tell them your situation they might make exception

What did you end up going with?
These edge cutter strings mentioned above are intriguing. I may put new ones on next year

Trying a place out of the US called Catfish Customs, came highly recommended by people on AT and he got back to me right away, knew all the specs for the bow and has fast turn around time,plus price was rrally good so we will see.
