what do you think the best sights are on the market for a reasonable price say less than $70 . also does anyone have any opinions on the Browning F5 tornado? I shot one the other night and was blown away at how well this bow shot for how compact it is and its low price makes this bow a steal.Id like to hear what you guys have to say on the subject

Well! I'm a Impact Archery sight loyalist ,they're the brightest sight on the market and all around the 70.00 and less range .
I have a Cosmic single pin ,but am going to pick up the trio as well ,check ebay out ,that's where I got mine for 35.00 U.S. I also like the HHA sight's but they're a little more expensive but are also among the brightest .

If anyone has a chance i would really recommend shooting this bow especially if you like compact bows with a lower budget.See i shoot left handed and usually its kind of hard to find a descent one thats not too expensive but for 365 you cant beat it.If anyone has shot one leave me a reply

Copper John's Dead Nuts Hunter sight comes in at like $69 or so... good looking sight with level and ability to put a light on it.

I used TruGlo for the last 6 years. This year Igot a 3 pin sight from Impact Archery and I love it. It is EXTREMELY bright. I think it cost somewhere around $40.

I have the CopperJohn 3 pin sight that I bought for under $70 and
they are very well made. I believe it would be hard to beat this sight
for the price.

Well for the past three years i have been trying new ones and i still havent found one that i like i was actually looking at some copper johns so i may go that way with it.also this year i have decided to get that browning so i am going to put new sights on it and keep the arrow rest and stabilizer.what Rests do you guys use

I put a Ripcord fall away rest on my Switchback, just got the rest,
sights and the bow about a month ago. I also put a Sims Limbsaver
S-coil stabilizer on it. I had thought about a Whiskerbiscuit and the
archery shop owner advised me against it and I am glad he did, so
far the Ripcord is working very well for me. The fork where your arrow
sets is very tall, it would be hard to knock the arrow off it and you can
push it up into position before you even draw if you wish. Good luck
in finding what works for you.

I am a big fan of the Zero Effect. I have used it on a Parker, AR, and I just put on my Switchback.

I dont like fall aways too much because there are too many things that can go wrong i think i will stay with my drop tine whisker biscuit i have used the whisker buiscuit for 2 years and love it.Before that i just used prong style rests and i hated how the arrow like to fall off. as you have probably read in other posts i have decided to get the Browning F5 Tornado. So i just need sights for it and i quiver.actually i am going to order it tommorow.If you guys get a chance check it out or look it up and tell me what you think.the pros and cons to it.I'd like to know what you guys think.
