Last year i used the 5519 with a 3/8 G5 Meta Peep. Combo worked great. I zeroed my site at 25 yards and went hunting. just compensated high or low depending on the range.

HHA makes a great hunting site. I've just been using a mulit pin all summer so that is what I'll be using this fall.

OL-5519 is my choice. It has performed flawlessly over the past two seasons. A nice feature is the adjustable light intake, which makes adjusting to indoor/outdoor shooting easy.


I would worry about the bow you shoot vice a new sight. I had a Bowtech "General" cause grave bodily harm. When I contacted the company, they laughed and said, send it in we will fix it. I melted the bow down so that no one could ever use it again. It was a costly mistake, but it will never happen again. Just wish I would have youtube footage on it.

I shot the ds5510 last year with the dial for yardage and the rheostat option(dims the fiber by allowing more or less light in)

It was very nice.
