Best Archery Bowstrings of 2025

"I use a #50 Super Grizzly bow, and this string is just gorgeous. It’s beautifully made with great twists, serving, and loops. I've noticed it's supposed to be 10 fps faster than my old B-55 strings."

"I ordered this string for my significant other’s recurve bow. He uses it daily. However, I found the website a bit confusing. It would be much easier if I could just specify the string measurement directly."

"I selected this string for my 54-inch recurve bow to lower the brace height and replace my worn-out one. Although it's fully untwisted, it turned out to be 50 inches instead of the expected 50.5. I measured it myself, but overall, it’s a great bow string that shoots well and feels premium."

"I ordered a 14 strand string for my 50 lbs bow, and it was exact for my Bear Kodiak Magnum. The quality is excellent and has performed better than the Flemish Twist I used before. I'm very satisfied!"

"The first string I received was defective, but I got a replacement within two days, and it fit perfectly. The quality of the new string is good, and I would definitely buy again."

"I use the 16 strand on my 55# Bear Super Kodiak and 50# Bear Super Grizzly. They hold up great despite heavy use. Fast delivery and durability make these strings a great choice!"

“I’ve found the best bowstring materials I can buy! I highly recommend this product.”

“Since I started making my own bows, twisting my own strings has given me a personal touch. There’s practically no string stretch, which is fantastic. The poundage has remained consistent over the past year. I absolutely recommend this string material; the color is vibrant and would look amazing with green or yellow.”

“I purchased two spools, one in purple and one in blue. The string itself performs excellently, but I noticed they arrived with almost no wax. I suggest picking up a good supply of string wax to ensure the bundles stick together properly; otherwise, you risk creating faulty strings and wasting materials.”

“I bought this to replace a broken string on my 11-year-old daughter's bow. She finds it very comfortable to shoot, and she absolutely loves it. Seems to be a good purchase, and I definitely recommend it.”

“This string is great! It's similar to my previous one, but this one has endured 30 to 40 hours of practice without any issues. The other string might have been a fluke.”

“I found the exact size I needed, and it's a high-quality string. However, I had an issue with the sizing; the 48" string I received was actually only 44 inches. Be sure to measure your string before ordering.”

"I found this stringer to be easy to use, allowing me to string my new bow without any safety worries."

"I've had great experiences with Shatterproof. They make high-quality products and their customer service is the best!"

"This bow stringer is well-constructed and works wonderfully with all my recurve bows. I believe it will last a long time!"

"After watching reviews and videos, I decided to purchase this stringer. It feels like it will be the last stringer I ever need!"

"I trust Shatterproof completely. Their custom string transformed my Oneida bow, and their service is unmatched!"

"Unfortunately, my experience was quite the opposite. The end that attaches to the bottom limb slipped and twisted, damaging my irreplaceable bow."

"I was disappointed with my stringer. It didn't seem properly made, and I wouldn't expect a two-time Olympic Champion to endorse it."

"This string is amazing! Dacron quality makes a huge difference for my Hungarian 55# traditional bow. It's slightly shorter than my original, but I felt confident using it and I'm so glad I did. The resonance in my palm is satisfying, and my arrows shoot harder and faster. The string looks stunning and feels strong. If you need a new string, buy this one!"

"I love this string, but my only issue is that it's exactly 44 inches. I prefer it to be a half inch longer for adjusting the brace height. I know it will stretch, but having that extra length would have been perfect for me."

"I was unsure about replacing the string on my bow, but I figured out the sizing and chose this one since I'd heard of the brand. It was made in the USA, and my son had no trouble getting it on the bow. He thinks it's way better than the original! I'll definitely buy this again!"

"I love the high-quality materials used in this product. It feels durable and well-made."

"Using this product is incredibly easy. I appreciate how straightforward it is."

"For the price, this is an amazing deal. The value for money is fantastic!"

"I'm very satisfied with this string. My 70” bow required a 66” string length, and these strings are a great value for two! The B55 material is smooth and has little to no stretch, which works perfectly for my 35# recurve take down 70” Sanlida Noble bow. I appreciate the detailed description regarding measuring string requirements and material specifications."

"I've been impressed with Sanlida's value for all of their archery supplies. They consistently deliver quality products at reasonable prices."

"I had two old bows and these strings worked just fine, though I had to make some adjustments to fit my setup. Overall, they are very well made and reasonably priced."

"I put this on my 45# Ben Pearson recurve and after some waxing, it shoots like a champ. It's a little noisy, but nothing some beaver balls won't fix. Definitely worth the money!"

"I really dig the color of this bowstring. I ordered a 14 strand to compare with the 16 strand that came with my bow. It feels more accurate, though I did lose some raw power. Overall, I'm very happy!"

"As a relative newcomer to archery, I learned that the string on my bow was too thick for my 30lb pull. Thanks to Deerseeker's great customer service, I got the correct string. Maybe I shoot a bit better now, but at least I don’t shoot worse!"

"I purchased a used 40# Black Hunter and noticed several misfired arrows with the original D-97 string. After switching to the Shatterproof D-97, I was amazed by the performance. The red and black string looks fantastic, and the pre-waxing was impressive. My first shot felt astonishing, and I can confidently say this string is a big upgrade. I’m excited to order a B-55 for my 1962 Bear Kodiak Special next!"

"I ordered a 60-inch string, but it didn't fit my 64-inch Southwest Archery Spyder XL. I struggled to achieve the recommended brace height. Thankfully, the company is addressing the issue and sending me a replacement string."

"This string is phenomenal! The waxing is excellent, and the extra-long center serving is impressive. They even sealed the package with the Shatterproof logo. It's clear that this company cares about their products. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them!"
