I'd go with a Spot Hogg Right On...$99 new. I have one and love it it. 5 pin with vertical reference wire, very nice and super durable. My buddy shot my bow this weekend and is getting one on his bow now.

I would add the wrap kit when you have the money....sight is very bright with the wrap, have not shot one without the wrap.

I like the Trophy Ridge Flatliner Matrix. Both my son and I have one of these I like the in-line sight picture. Ours in the three pin. I've never had a problem with this sight.

I am about 5 minutes away from lake wallenpaupack. and about 30 mins away from scranton... Last sight was kinda destroyed. and it was not all that good to begin with. I think the previous owner stripped the threads on the sight and some of the pins.
