Our news this week is that we have acquired another four product lines:

• Last week we received our initial shipment of bowstrings & cables from Winner's Choice. We stock two-colour buss cables, strings & sets for some Hoyt bows. Winner's Choice strings are trusted by the world's top archers, are pre-stretched & can be relied upon to hold their length regardless of environmental conditions & greatly increase consistency. Weatherlock technology, now standard on all Winners Choice strings, makes strings impervious to all weather conditions by completely waterproofing string, protects string fibres from abrasion better than any other string product & reduces heat absorption, which robs accuracy. Strings have a one year warranty & guaranteed to have no peep rotation, serving separation or creep. We can order your string for you and have it in within 10 days. We will soon upload Winner's Choice products.
