There are quite a few good string makers...One of the best is Carters Archery ( http://www.cartersarchery.net/ ). He goes by Crackers...If you like a perfect tune along with strings and cables, he'll tune your bow to absolute perfection. I've sent four bows to him and every one shoots to perfection and stays that way. I mark my cams to reveal any movement and after 7 years, the first one he tuned hasn't moved at all. The strings and cables haven't stretched at all! He'll make them in any color combo you like (you can match your arrow fletching and wrist sling if you like that...)
Another well established company is Winners Choice. They make great strings and cables also...
I wouldn't be afraid of Vapor Trail either...They make a good product...
In any event, either send it to someone (I would recommend Crackers highly) or find the specs. on your bow and get the bow into spec. Make sure cams roll over properly (that they're timed properly), and the brace height/draw length/axle to axle are correct. This stuff is all crucial to accuracy...
Hope this helps...

JBK custom bowstrings. I have JBKs on my z7 and they are cheaper and a lot better than stock strings\ cables. 24 month warranty on JBK strings, best warranty you will find on bowstrings.

I've always liked winners choice, and as a Hoyt man, I like fuze strings     

Sbd and stone mountain for the sticks!

Twisted x and hoggwire are the best bare none. Ray knight makes awesome threads if you shoot a Hoyt or OK bow (doesn't make strings for any other brsnds). JBK makes good threads too. Not a 60X fan, I follow another archery forum and I have experienced myself and  saw posts of some not so good customer service.

I think you can get pretty good PSE bowstrings from 60x custom strings or another place that I've used prolinebowstrings. You can just google them! You do't even have to know nothin about them to get em.

I'm assuming you have gotten new strings by now, but I will leave a reply for others interested.. In my experience, Twisted-X and JBK make the best strings available.
