    Default G5 strings

    Well the first set I had on my bow where junk. after about 30 shots I started to notice the servings where separating badly on the cables. Well I got a new set from elite, and this set is much nicer. I have about 300 shots on them and the servings look just like they did the day I got them, and my peep hasen't moved. I don't know what they did but they seemed to have fixed the problem. At least with the ones I got.

    Glad to hear these ones are better. Hopefully Elite will have better luck with the new models. Seems they have had a bad batch of strings no matter who makes them. Maybe the string manufacturers are underestimating the stress that these Elites are putting on these strings and cables. You can't produce that much speed without stressing them a little bit.

    Mine are seperating also. The serving is not tight enough.
    I have 300 shots on it and I'll have to change them real soon.

    I don't understand how such a bad problem has happened on these servings....
    I personally have seen aftermarket strings that look brand new after hundreds,hundreds of shots...
    Stage 1
    Rock Solid
    ProLine Bowstrings
    Twisted Archer
    etc..

    And I would say oh becuase G5 is making so many a day in high production...
    I make anywhere from 25-40 sets a day...by myself right now...and no problems....
    And I know that is no where near what their doing...but by a single person...then multiply that by however many are working...yea I'm about right there with them..
    and Rocksolid makes a ton too....
    Like I said though...
    I have seen all the above names in person, and they look amazing....even after 500 shots.....
    just my venting session

    Is anyone fixing their servings that are coming apart by taking the slack out of the serving after a few shots.... just wondering.
