I currently havea Copper John Dead Nuts Hunter that I absolutely love. It's been a great sight, very rugged and very dependable. However, like the knucklehead I am I just ordered a Dead Nuts 2 Pro w/micro adjust. I just got confirmation that it shipped today, so as soon as I get it in I'll make sure I post my thoughts. From what I saw at the ATA Show they look like great sights, and from what they've told me on the phone the fiber optic pins are made of a new, more durable fiber optic material so prevent them from becoming to brittle incold weather.

I am using a Cobra Sidewinder Radiant... but it is only 3 pins... I do not know if you can get it w/ more.
The sight is very durable and the built in light makes the pins brighter than any sight I have ever used.

Copper John has been known for years as having very solid durable hunting sights. Spot Hogg has the same reputation. I am getting a Copper John Dead Nuts 2 Competition for my 3d set up and an Extreme RT1000 for my hunting sight. Of these 3 and the others that have been mentioned you really can't go wrong. Pick the one that has the most features you are looking for and you'll be getting a good product.

Like the earlier post I also have to echo the HHA. I just can't imagine the need, at leastin my experience, of needing all of these pins. But then again I'm also a heavy follower of the K.I.S.S. principle. If the range of the shot is a little long simply hold the single pin a little high and likewise a little low for a shorter shot. Do we really need all of these pins with our fast bows? Then again I can't imagine taking a shot much beyond 40 yards so I suppose another pin might be nice for extreme distance. But for that scenario I plan to dab a little mark on my pin to use if and when I would ever need to take a long poke. The pin on the HHA is crazy bright and you can easilyadjust its luminosityas the light fades.Sometimes less is more.

I just got the Copper John Dead Nuts 2 Competition for my target bow. I like it so much I put the Dead Nuts 2 Surpreme on my hunting bow. It is an awesome sight.
