Default Need a New Sight!!

I have some really junky sights that came with my bow. I am of course a poor college kid!! So spending in the hundreds is out of the question right now. Whats a good sight for around $80 (or lower if its a good sight.) Any suggestions would be a great help.

I actually just bought a Black Gold sight called the Amp today, it cost me $79.99. I was really impressed with the small housing, longer extension arm, and the brightness of the pins. It took me almost an hour of inspecting all of the other brands before choosing this one, def worth checking out.

Actually... now that i bought a new site today, i would sell you my Trophy Ridge 3 pin for $30.00. It has a few rust spots on some of the screws, but overall it's in tip top shape.

Look up Sword Archery, go to their online store and get an Apex Hunter for $60, best sight for that money you will find, and you can pick your pin sizes and colors. For the $$$, you can't beat a Sword Sight!!!

Sure you can, Viper also allows you to pick pins sizes, color variations etc.

Fantastic sight for $69.95.

You can upgrade for slightly more.

Or you can buy from one of our own and get a great deal on black, I accessorize all my bows in black so it'll move from bow to bow and match pefectly.

I put on the Cobra Boomslang 3 pin lighted site and it works pretty well.. Easy to set up and adjust as well.. Most of the sites today are pretty decent when paying up around that price tag..
