which string 452 or 8190
 

which string should i purchase for my hoyt katera. looking at either winners choice new 8190 or octanes 452 with 2 year warranty. the octane on my sons d350 is on three years and never a problem. i havent heard many reviews on the 8190 except from wc

A two year warranty on a string is amazing to me. I won't shoot a string that long--I swap out every 6-12 months, and that is on a longbow.

I like the 8190--it should be more durable than the 452, but may have a touch more stretch/creep--but again, I only shoot traditional bows.

i went with the Vapor Trail VTX with no regret. the string was broke in under 10 shots and absolutely no peep rotation. i also picked up a little speed.

452 bcy...on my compound bows and only get them from www.Korbinsstrings.com Korbin is a great guy.

Chad; I'm with you. I change strings out so much two to three times on compound bow because of the tournaments I shoot and I perfer 452, and 8190 on my long bows.
