Default All green pins on sight??

I've found that the green fiber pins are the easiest to see. I am thinking about have a Viper micro tune set up with all green. Anybody have an opinion or use this set-up? Does it lead to confusion at the moment of truth? Thanks in advance.

I agree that the green is more visible.

My old sight I put in 3 green pins. I liked it because they were easier for me to see. As long as you don't associate a color with a yardage in your mind now, there shouldn't be a problem.

Good point...as it stands I do not. I just count from the top as yardage increases anyway.

I have a green 20 yard, a yellow 30 and a red 40-50 I am keeping that red pin because if I need a green pin to see a possible 40-50 yard shot I shouldent take that shot because of the possibility of popping a BB when thinking its a doe

Green is the first to show up and the last to leave in low light...I'm not a fan of all green however, green, yellow, green, yellow would work. If it's light enough to see a deer at 30 yards, your yellow will show as well, especially from the Viper Pro MT....
