Default RE: spot hogg users please help me out here!

IMO there is nothing better quality wise, feature wise and for ease of adjustment than the Spot-Hogg sights.
The only knock in the past was what Jeff mentioned about low light capabilities........unless you just lengthened the fibers on your own they were lacking in that department.
I actually like my "Real Deal" model with the short fibers because I have easy access to the fiber slots. I can simply lengthen the single top pin to make it stand out against the rest when the light fades. 9 time out of 10 that's the only pin you should be using anyway so it makes sense to only brighten that one (and CENTER IT)

The new Wrap fiber models completely eliminate that low light shortcoming though. In fact the new .010 wrap style is plenty bright as a hunting sight on it's own even with the tiny pins (except the reds are all but invisible)

If I was ordering a new hunting sight tomorrow it would 100% be a Spot-Hogg "Hogg-It hunter" withone of 2wrap pin styles:
1) Top Pin would be .029 wrap green and the remaining 4 would be .010 wrap yellow,green,yellow,green color pattern
2) All pins would be .029 wrap with a Green,Yellow,Red,Yellow,Red color pattern

Viper and Sword and a few other quality brandshave their following but those sights don't appeal to me at all after using Spot-Hoggs.
