Default round pin gaurd sights a must

Aloha Everyone,
I just receiced the dead nuts and I just wanted to encourage anyone out there who uses a peep and a sight with a square pin guard that its time to change. To be able to line up the peep with the round gaurd really makes a significant difference.
Ohhhh piggy, here little piggy , piggy piggy

I don't center my housing in the peep, so it really doesn't make a difference to me. I center the pin in the the peep because of some of the longer distances I shoot.

I have a 3 pin sight on a movable sight. For 20, 30 and 40 I don't need to move it, but for 50 on out I can move the slider if I want to.

Paul

Paka,
I know a few guys that still aim by centering the pin in the peep. However, centering the pin guard in the peep works great for me. Especially for longer shots this aids in making a much more accurate shot.

Check out an article I wrote on peep sights. http://backcountrybowhunting.com/?page=articles/peeps.php

I agree... My Copper John has made sighting much easier!

agreed. my truglo houseing and medium shurz a peep fit PERFECTLY together and thats how i shoot. if i went to a smaller peep like a rifle peep id center the pins...but thats kinda inpractical for hunting i think. i think it would be hard with the low light of most hunting conditions to see through a small peep.
