Angel Majesty

I was wondering if anybody has tried using a string made from Angel Majesty. I was considering getting one from HNL Archery to try.

Any thoughts on either the string or HNL.

I haven't. Though I'm thinking about getting a spool of it as my 8125 is about to run out.
I like the sound of the polymer/resin coating.
From what I've heard, it's like a more durable version of ASB Dyneema - doesn't go fluffy as quickly.

HNL makes excellent strings, but you need to be careful about what you specify -- Leighton has a tendency to default to multi-coloured strings. Just specify the exact colours of string and serving that you want, and you'll be very happy with the result.

Angel Majesty strings and servings (courtesy of Leighton) on both target recurves and field set-ups.

Very neat strings and steady as a rock, unlike my shooting.

Also have 2xAngel strings for 68" bows (also from HNL) 1xbrand new, 1xused (probably 2doz. arrows) going spare if anyone interested.

oooohhhhhh...pretty colours....and here's me going to the US in March..

I might have to get creative and pull my wallet out.....after all I'm sure with garish strings I can get those extra points I need to meet my personal targets.

I might be interested MM - I seem to have a lot of trouble with strings, particularly servings, which with all the other problems (me mainly!) I can do without.When you say 'steady as a rock' I'm hoping that may include the servings. Let me know what you're looking at for them.....Cheers!

Seen as were on strings - I currently have mine made from BCY452 (America wouldn't let fast flight out of the states, 'cos it makes good bullet proof jackets). Is there a good reason to chance to fast flight plus? Or should I stick with 452?
