I can determine immediately if I have proper alignment.
And although I shot well before out to 40 and 50 yards, my groups are even tighter now that I have the correct size peep.
It's amazing how much difference a properly sized peep can make!
I think Kybuckhunter is misunderstanding what 'gimmick' might mean. The bow mounted 'peep eliminator' systems claim to improve accuracy - his own thread admits that they don't do that. That's a gimmick to me. I also would much rather miss on paper or foam than I would on a target with a pulse, so I'd much rather have the more accurate set up on my hunting bow, rather than settling for a less accurate system. I've personally never had an issue with light gathering through a peep - that's an issue of your peep being too far from your eye, and/or too small diameter, i.e. poorly set up.
Shooting without any sights of any kind can work, but it's not as accurate as a well-matched bowsight housing and peep arrangement. I'd never stray from that.
