RE: new to bowhunting - peep questions....
Large peep with a round pin guard. Center the pin guard, not the pin. This will let more light in under low light conditions.
Also, make sure your peep fits you. You shouldn't have to kink your neck to see through the peep. Close your eyes and draw to the most comfortable anchor point. When you open your eyes, the peep should be aligned perfectly. If not, adjust it. Good luck.
