Default RE: Anybody shoot without a peep? No sight?

Now.....WHY I am interested.....

Rob/PA was down here a few weeks ago.....and we had deer in or set EARLY one morning. I asked Rob if he could see his sights/peep (after we came down). he said "sure". I couldn't see a thing in my sight or peep. Admittedly....We were 2-3 minutes from enough shooting light for ME.....but had Rob had the angle I had......he'd have shot a doe I named "Cadillac" (she's long and sleek). The difference between harvesting a trophy animal and not harvesting one.......could depend on my equipment in the future. I won't condone shooting in the dark....but we'll leave ethics out of this equation. Rob had sufficient light to shoot. I didn't (based on my equipment). I want to give myself EVERY LEGAL advantage. That's why I asked the questions I ask(ed).

For the record.....I'm currently utilizing the SH Hunter Hogg-it. it's a great target sight.....but about as pitiful a hunting sight as I've seen. I liked Rob's Viper sight.....and I'll likely ask for one for Christmas.

Thanks for all of your replies......and I'm still interested in that "marker thing" i.l.o. the peep.

Sincerely

jeff
