The Challenge
Vapor Trail Archery was founded in 1993 by a shooter frustrated with consistency and quality of the archery equipment available. Peep sight alignment, which would vary each time at full draw, made precision shooting very difficult
The Solution
Vapor Twist Xtreme strings and cables are the answer to inconsistency. After as few as three shots, your peep sight is done changing positions for good. We make this possible through our proprietary blend of Synthetic materials and in-depth manufacturing processes.
The Advantage
Sounds too good to be true? Just ask the professionals who have been shooting our products for years. They have helped us fine tune our strings and cables to the ultimate in performance and consistency. Imagine having consistent peep sight alignment with every single shot whether shooting in a championship round or going after the trophy of a lifetime.

When do I need new custom compound bowstrings?
Custom compound bowstrings will need to be replaced a minimum of every 2 years. The fibers they are made of don’t have an incredibly long shelf life, and even just sitting strung on your bow they will begin to break down. There are other factors that can hasten the demise of your custom compound bowstrings?
Temperature can affect your custom compound bowstrings
Temperature extremes can speed up the death of your custom compound bowstrings. Extreme heat brought on by leaving the your bow in a hot vehicles can cause some of the lubricating properties of your string to vaporize, leading to a premature failure, and extreme cold can have an adverse effect as well. Most of the high end string materials are very tolerant of these heat and cold swings, and are no longer a concern with these custom compound bowstrings.
Friction is the biggest enemy of custom compound bowstrings
If there is one thing that will send you to the shop for a new set of custom compound bowstrings it’s friction. Those strings can not bump up against anything. This is the reason there is serving around your cam corners, where the string hits your sleeve, and anywhere else the string contacts anything. The serving cushions and protects the custom compound bowstrings from contact with anything and must be constantly monitored for wear. If your serving is wearing or separating get it fixed immediately. Serving failure is the number one reason your custom compound bowstrings will fail prematurely
Caring for your custom compound bowstrings
A quality carrying case will protect your custom compound bowstrings from bumps and bruises during transport and is a good idea. It is also a good idea to wax your bowstring to help keep dirt and moisture from penetrating it, and speaking of dirt, keep it off your bow string. Dirt and friction are best friends, and we already talked about what friction does to custom compound bowstrings.
Best compound bowstrings
best compound bowstrings are made from dedicated crew specializing in nothing but best compound bowstrings. When you make a living being the best at a true niche market, you die quickly unless you get it right. But what are they getting right? The list is long and substantial.
best compound bowstrings dont creep
All the stretch is eliminated from a set of best compound bowstrings and this means timing issues are eliminated, peep twist is a non issue, and your arrows hit the same spot for years on end. Bowstring stretch is common occurrence on OEM and low end bowstrings. Cheaper materials stretch and ‘creep’, while high end best compound bowstrings will not. Buy high end and never worry about all of the problems string creep creates.
Your peep does not need adjusting with best compound bowstrings
Ever watch a guy bite his peep to get it set for the shot? Ridiculous. Cheap strings stretch, and when they do your peep moves out of alignment. Bit and twist if you like, but your best compound bowstrings are gauranteed not to twist after a 10 shot break in period. Set it and forget it, and when that low light buck steps out at 20 yards the view will be clean as day.
best compound bowstrings are consistent
Custom bowstrings rock. They are a step above and everyone will see the difference in your groups.
All this adds up to a set of strings that are the same at 110 in the desert as the are at 40 below in the arctic. They never change and every shot sequence is identical. This consistency is what builds accuracy and confidence. A set of best compound bowstrings will have you shooting better than ever, and they are the key tight groups in any scenario.
