I have the cobra boomslang and i love it. Its a really good sight if you are looking for a mid priced ( around 50$) four pin sight. IT is really bright. If you are looking for something of a little higher grade cobra makes a more expensive sight that is real good too.

Your gonna get a ton of opinions. When I bought my first new bow in a few years back in 06 I researched sights myself looking for the best of the best. After looking at nearly all the top of the line sights, I found Viper Archery Products. I feel the Viper Pro MT and 2000 by Viper Archery Products are some of the best sights made but I'm real, real anxious to try the new Octane sight by Bowtech as soon as they come available.

I use a G5 Optix.

No complaints, I've tried many but always find my way back to her.

I use a Sword Acu-Site and have been extremely pleased. I did a little research before getting my new site and stumbled across Sword and have yet to hear a negative thing about them. Best of luck in your search

Like said before there will be lots of opinions. Viper is a Good sight as are Spot Hoggs. Octane sights are also worth a look see. If you are interested in a single pin rear slider then HHA has No equal.

If you are looking for a Good quality sight at a lower price Impact makes a nice sight.

A sight is and should be considered an investment to be passed on to other bows for years.

+1, I've found that Sword Sites are top quality as well.

I will second those Viper sights, my buddy and I both use them and they make one heck of a sight. I do agree though the new Octane NSX sight looks really sweet.
