Default Input needed for selection of a new sight.

Hello all! I decided to get back into archery and bowhunting last year. I shot all year with some pretty old equipment and did pretty well.
This year I have decided to really hit it hard, get some new equipment and get serious about bow hunting. (not much of a stretch since I'm already an avid rifle/muzzleloader hunter)
After trying out several bows in my price range I settled on a PSE Typhoon. So far I have outfitted it with a Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter rest, a No-peep and my old $20 Cobra sight.
The setup is showing some definite promise. Already I am shooting better than I did all last year. The bow is plenty fast, very smooth and very quiet.
Now for the question. I would like to upgrade to a better sight. I am torn between the Vital Bow Gear and HHA single pin adjustable sights and a whole variety of fixed, multi pin sights. I like the uncluttered view that the single pin sights give. The Trophy Ridge sights with the inline pins look intriguing but I don't like the fact that they are made out of plastic.
I want something reasonably light, highly visible and very rugged. I will be using it for 3D and on the target range but it's main purpose will be for hunting.
Any thoughts, experiences and or comments would be appreciated!
