South Shore Archery. I think it's listed under Platinum serving material or something like that.

You have to wax it every 15 shots and that picks up dirt and gets in your trigger.

Excalibur tested Kevlar and found it to be no where as good as Angel Majesty. I do not think they waxed the serving because they tend to test in the worst case scenario and conditioning the string, let alone the serving is a pretty low priority for most owners. There has been spotty successes though.

I tried kevlar serving and didn't think it was as good as AM. I'm getting better at serving and I think AM is easier to apply and longer lasting. I must say since switching to Excalibur I don't worry much about string life and serving wear. I have a bunch of strings and just switch em out when I see wear and reserve when I have time. When I shot a compound crossbow I didn't shoot as much as I would like because of the hassle and expense of string and cable maintenance. A lot to be said for simplicity that's for sure.
