Default Pick my new sight

I'm going with one of these 3 sights. Spot Hogg is not on my list..don't need to spend that kind of $$ for my sight. I also will most likely remove some pins when hunting season rolls around. I only use 2 pins for bowhunting deer. Pick me one.

(1) Sword Apex Hunter........4 .19 pins , no 3rd axis adjustment. Can add a light later if I want(not necessary IMO)

(2) Sword Twilight Hunter....5 .19 pins. 3rd axis adjustment with light, can take light off.

(3) Cobra DRM...................5 .19 pins, no 3rd axis adjustment

(1) Sword Apex Hunter

I hear good things about Sword sights. I have never been impressed with anything cobra makes.

My personal choice in a multipin sight excluding Spot Hogg would be Viper sights.

Dan, which Sword sight? Remember, you're supposed to help pick my new sight[8D]. Actually I have a Viper sight on the Patriot, the 1000. Nice rugged sight, just want to try something different.

I'd probably go with #2 of the Sword sights.

Dan, which Spot Hogg sight would you recommend that is similiar to the Sword Twilight Hunter? Don't need all that fancy microtune stuff.

The Real Deal is a nice sight without all the bells and whistles of the Hogg-Its

I'd check on the price of a Real Deal first too, Greg... since you opened the door.

Of those you have listed, I like #2 best. I just installed #3 for a friend's setup (first-time archer) and it was "OK".... but I'd think the Sword would be far superior.

SCBigBuckHunter has the Sword Twilight Hunter on his Guardian and he loves it. We hunted together almost every day this year and he had nothing bad to say about it and had no problems that I know of.
