There is no comparison to be made except to say that Spott Hogg isn't made of plastic.

But it is a very well built site and I absolutely love the adjustability of it.

nodog, I still have the HHA OL-5000 on my hunting bow. I'm convinced it one of the most rugged sights made, very bright, and has all the micro-adjustments I need considering all the tinkering I do.
I've got a Real Deal on my 3D bow and it's a good sight. I think the adjustments for elevation of each pin is crude and has to be done with care, but the sight is rugged. The very finest sight I've used so far was the Sur Loc Lethal Weapon, with adjustments as fine as .002" for the pins and/or gang adjustments. My only issue with it was that with the LW-1 I could not get my second and third pins close enough to set them at 30 and 40 yards. I could have gotten the LW-2 with the sight extension,moving the sight farther from the bow,but about that time a guy I worked with gave me the Real Deal for $75---not a shabby price.
Of course, I already have my new bow picked out for next year. Martin ShadowCat Elite/ Nitrous X. It'll be a target model set up for target and 3D only so I may yet stick the LW-2 on a bow.

I am having some minor issues adjusting the pins as well. However, I think it is probably more of the loose screw behind the peep.
The offer for you to come over so I can help ya out is still on the table
You can even use our range to sight it in
