    Default 452X string material

    Whats everyones opinion on this material?
    I have heard that it is not the most stable material out there?
    I for one cant stand peep rotation........Once upon a time I was using 8125 material from a custom string builder and everytime the temp/humidity changed there went the peep.
    I am told one HAS to use 452X material on the Elites.....
    Just how rock solid is the material?
    I live in Wisconsin......it can be zero degrees or 90 and humid....and I dont want to be always fighting my peep.
    So whats the word?

    Coach Archery legend that knows his stuff. Good friend who is a top pro.

    Use 452X and Halo serving.

    Take it for what its worth. This is what he recommended years ago.

    452x is a perfect choice, from my experience if you shoot 450+ material it will slow your bow plus beat your bow to death! I personally shoot 50-100 shots a day 5-6 days a week and compete every Sunday using Stage 1 strings and they are 452x. And I also have the same weather conditions and have NO problems with 452x it works!!

    452X is the best material I have ever used, settles really fast, stays put, peep sits straight and pulls back straight.

    Moderators.............go ahead and lock the thread.
    I have thought it over and I didnt start the thread to pick on Elites policy with string choice. And when a certain person sees this thread I have a feeling it will be taken as so.
    Although I am skeptical to the real reasons why my string choice isnt "right".....I will figure out how to get both my bows reset up with the correct string as soon as I can get the cash to buy two setups without the wife..........

    And this 452X better be as good ....if not better than what Im using!
    As I have been using it for quite awhile with nothing short of perfection!
