I' ve tried all the sight designs currently on the market, vertical, single pin slider etc. and I keep coming back to the tried an true horizontal multi-pin fiber optic.
I' m simply used to it, and this style allows me to gap shoot very accurately the in between yardages.........for 25 yards I simply look at the spot I want to hit on the deer BETWEEN my 20 and 30 pins. You can' t do that with a vertical pin sight and that was my biggest complaint with them.
I don' t much care for the " Super Bright" styles either.......IMO they are a bit of a gimmick. Sure they look bright as heck, and are cool to look at but if they get too bright you end up with pin " Flare" in bright light, and its hard to see thru all that with today' s speed bows and tight pin gaps. Plus in low light, its hard to see past that light and still make out a deer in a normal peep sight, kinda like trying to see the driver of a car with his headlights in your face.
What I prefer, is a 4 pin system........20-30-40-50 (the 50 is there just to help gapping on the 40)
My 30-40-50 pins are all " Tournament" style .019 micro pins. think about it...why on earth would you need a bright pin for a distance that you can' t even see to shoot. If its bright enough to see the target at those ranges then I can see plenty of my pin to hit it. Plus the fine aiming points reduce " Flare" and give me a finer aiming point. I don' t want a lot of the animal covered at 35 yards.
My 20 yard pin is just a tiny bit different........I melted it out with a lighter to just a slightly bigger diameter. It gives me a slightly brighter top pin, but not OVERLY bright. Still a fine aiming point, plenty bright enough to see in any legal shooting light, but a touch brighter which helps prevent pin confusion since that' s the one that sees the most action, and you can see a target at 20 yards and under for later in the evening so a touch brighter pin will help.
My personal choice for models is a Spot-Hogg ' Hogg-it' that I also use for 3D tournaments.........I' ve been looking at this sight picture and drilling X' s all 3D season so why change for the real thing?
