Buckmaster,
I twisted the 450 myself. I'm a novice string maker, just making them for my self and family. I may be full of crap but I think string type is sorta relative. My brother likes my TS1 strings better on his longbows but the 450 seems quieter for me on mine. I think the release plays into it, but again, I may be wrong. I like TS1 on my Dalaa better than 450.
The 450 was quieter on my Widows, for me, than the D97 even with Bow hush and puppies. I like to tinker so trying different string materials is enjoyable to me.
I pulled a rookie play and over shot a doe, while on the ground, at 15 yards this morning. The PCH was quiet enough that she never figured out what was happening and if not for the brush I could have had another shot.
I like a quiet bow and the 450 with Terrys girls Bow hush and puppies is working great on the PCH.
I'm going to grab a bite to eat, get my Summit and try to get set up on that buck that I saw yesterday.
Thanks for the comments on the bow, I sure do like her.
Good luck fellas.
