I'm getting ready to put a WC string on my Commander tomorrow and you can be danged sure I'll be really clamping down on that SOB!
Jeff,
What makes you say that WC strings are slippery like that? Only reason I ask is that strings from WC are made from the same material as everybody else. These days it's almost always 452X or 8125. If nobody else is having this problem then why would WC?
From everything I've read on a lot of forums Bowtech has pretty good strings on their bows and peep rotation shouldn't be much of a problem. Therefore I would suggest Pa. Trophy Man try a tubeless peep and forget about the tube altogether. It shouldn't be that hard to find out if it would work. He could use his present peep without attaching the tube to see if there is any rotation. If there is no rotation then the answer would be pretty clear to me.
If he must have a tube then get a longer one and serve it in properly and he should not experience the sliding up the string. Of course, considering his problems so far I would consider a different shop. If the tube is too short then they should have picked up on this.
