Will peeps that split the string 3 ways creep?
I would really like to get away from a tubeless peep. But with my current string I don't trust a peep that splits the string two ways because I'm afraid it won't stay lined up. Does it matter for the peeps that split it 3 ways if the string creeps a little or because of the design will it work regardless of how my string is rotated. Does anyone have any experience with these types of peeps?

The ones that split 3 ways do not come square to the eye when at full draw.They have no angle to them like the fletcher.
Basically,you end up looking through half a hole at full draw,I have about a half dozen that I have removed over the years.

I personally just never used a peep to hunt with because of the chance that it wouldn't come around or tube would break or it would be too dark in the deep hardwood mountains I hunted.
However, If I were to use one it would be the 3 or new 4 way splits. Drill them out big or buy a big one. They will not be effected by creep to any significant degree.
TFox is correct you will not see a perfectly round hole but to my eye that never really mattered. I shot one in one of the biggest 3D IBO shoots of the time back in my pro days and I never felt at all handicapped. It didn't look as "professional" in there as the TruPeep's but I am all about function.
Try one, you'll like it much better than 2 strand or "tru peep".

If a bow is shot in around 100 shots with 450 or 452 or even winners choice or vaportrail strings, you won't have to worry about it. And the ones that split a string 3 ways suck bad. String is always in your way.
Ever since I started shooting bows with newer materials, my peep stays put. I might have to turn the string 1/2 a turn once a year.

I have the 3 way peep on my bow and the only problem i have discovered is when im in direct sunlight (ie standing in a field) the sun hits the brown colored string (i am shooting a parker balckhawk with a black and brown bowstring) which causes a glare of sorts and it is definitey a lot harder to see the target. Its not very comforting when you come to full draw and cannot see a 3d rineheart target 35 yards away.
