Default bow make over

ok...the time is approaching...getting ready to regear my Highlander with good gear and make it a good hunting rig...ill be back to work here in about 2 weeks and by the end of june i figure ill be shoppin and buyin everything at once... got my string and arrows picked out...got my stabilizer already...got my quiver...

but i want new sights and rest. i have an pretty bad astigmatism and FOs seem to blur...so i was thinking of a Vital Bow Gear Star Treck. probably a verticle pin...id like a .019 if i could find one...i dont know that they make them though...

for the rest...im thinking of a QAD lock down model..drop away full containment rest...but ive heard mixed things about it...some guys love them...some hate them...

also peeps..i am absolutely sick of my Shurz A peep. shur does create a major problem when it twists and theres a big strand of string in your eye!! and i dont want no rubber tubing....that leaves me with a "true peep" or a "meta peep" dont know what ones better...

any help?? advice? pros? cons??

this is a pure hunting rig. i shot ALOT of backyard targets...(more than most hunters) and may even shoot a little 3D this summer but nothin serious...i need equiptment that will stand upto hunting...i dont abuse my gear...but i USE it. shoot ALOT and hunt ALOT.

i know i know put a bisquit on my hunting bow...i dont want a bisquit. i shoot a nap 1000 now..it works...but i rather have a drop away...and like the QAD LD model..seems like its got good features that would make for a good solid accurate hunting rest...and my new arrows are going to be 10-12GPI..my bows already slow...if id be one of the unlucky and loose any FPS with a WB id be upset ..(dont turn this into a WB war...that wont help me...)

thanx
