I love new bow brands — I think of them as “buttery”.
It does sound like you may have gotten bad strings – let them know and they’ll send you new ones.
Other things to consider — sometimes the inside of the tuning pin can be rough, or if you don’t have it completely vertical as you lace the string it can damage the string. Also, be careful as you tie the string – maybe you accidentally crimped it?
Good luck!
