Default sight with lens(HUNTING)

does anyone use a sight with a scope or lens for deer hunting--because of vision problems. IS ANYONE FAMILIAR WITH BULLSEYE SIGHTS--SUPPOSIVLY THEY HAVE A 3PIN SIGHT AVAILABLE WITH 2X,4X LENS.

I think a scope would be a pain if you got the occasional rain or drizzle.

My Hogg It sight has an optional scope.. but I doubt I'd use it for hunting.

I have a cosmic impact with a 2x lens that I think I'm going to sell. It is a great hunting sight, both with and w/o the lens. LMK if you are interested.

I have used many scopes in the past for target work, but will never have one for hunting. A liitle rain or snow and you're screwed. When it starts getting dark it'll let less light through. How far might one be shooting while hunting that any magnifications is needed? I did note that you specified "vision problems" I don't know. Maybe my eyes get that bad I can't see 20 yards it might be time to hang it up.

I have a bullseye Millenium scope 4 power. The lens screws out the back which is handy when it rains, I just take it out. I don't hunt with it though just shoot 3D with it..
