Default Pendulum VS. Fixed Pin Sights

I have heard Pendulum Sightsare more accurate and eazyer (you dont have to adjust your pins for yardage just point and shoot)to use than fixed pin sights although fixed pin sights seem to be the popular sight at this time. Back in the late 80's and early 90's a pendlum sight was the thing and allot of deer where killed with this type of sight.What do you guys think.If money was not a factor what type and module sight whould you use?

I shoot a SavagePendulum Max.
I like it and I don't get confused deciding which pin is which.
But it all boils down to what you are comfortable with.
I would suggest you see if someone has one you can buy used or try it, but make sure you tryit from an elevated position.

i have a trophy ridge mantis hunter pendulum sight and i sighted it in for 25 yards on the ground and in the treestand it will shoot out to 30 yards, which is perfect for me because i rarely shoot out past 30 yards.
