Default RE: Need a decent sight

ORIGINAL: DropTine249

If you're looking for a relatively affordable sight Id recommend Tru-Glo. I have Tru-Glo on my bow and my brother has the Tru-Glu lumination on his. He turns a knob and the fiberoptics light up via a watch type battery. He has 3 Pins, 20, 30 & 40 yards. I Have 5 Pins, 20, 30, 40, 50 & 60 yards. Even with 5 pins, my sight picture is rather vast, its a very open sight. When I buy my new bow however, Im putting on a different Carolina Archery sight or a FoxFire
I just took the FoxFire off of my bow. It doesn't have a lot of fiber wrapping so at low light the pin almost disappears. I few weeks ago I came to draw on a big 8. I could see him broadside but when I turned the pin light on, I couldn't see past the pin to him...no shot. I have since replaced that sight with the HHA Optimizer OL 5500...great sight. I like the rheostat option, plus 5 feet of fiber means a very bright pin. I'm like gzg, I like the single pin sights. I use a single pin for 0-30 yards and then hold a bit high for 35 yards.
