The best sight available... What might it be?
 

Im just wondering through your perspectives, what is the best sight available on the market? (as in best i mean easily adjustable, and good, bright pins, and tough)

RE: The best sight available... What might it be?
 

In my opinion, after more than 35 years in archery? For an all round sight one of the HHA OL series. 5000, 5019, 5519---soemthing like that. They're a little heavy than most adjustables, but made of thicker machined metal and the guard protects the pin very well in hunting situations. Can be set for a fixed distance (like 25 yards for hunting, but adjusted for different distances for practice and 3D. Bright enough you don't need a light even when the light is fading, ergo no expensivebatteries needed.

Everything is machined aluminum except the nylon washers and steel nuts and bolts. No cheap $.02 molded plastic. Lifetime warranty with virtually no questions asked.

thankyou

The HHL Ol series are one pin adjustable sights, great for 3-d but NOT for hunting. You're not going to have time to make a sight adjustment in most hunting situations on any shot over 30 yards or so. I've also heard of guys forgetting that they made anadjusment on these style sights and then shooting high in the heat of the moment (ummmm, yes, happened to me too years ago).

I'd recomend the Spot hog, Hogg-it with wrap kit or the g5 Optix ME, both in 0.019 pins for hunting. They both have good micro adjustments, are bright and somewhat gaurd the fiber optic filliments unlike the Trophy Ridge sights.

Thankyou, that is what i was looking at, them and trophy ridge.

I agree, the G5 optix ME is a real beauty, and even if you should break a pin, they'll replace it for ya in no time, even when you live in the UK.

The G5 Optix ME is a 3-pin sight am i correct?

RE: The best sight available... What might it be?
 

It comes in 3, 4 or 5 pins.

When I researched sights for my new Allegiance, I wanted the best.....I looked at everything I could and this is what I found and feel is the best sight on the market.

It's the Predator Viper Pro MT by Viper Archery Products. I loved this sight so much I bought a second one for my Trykon then sold the whole rig to a friend. I just ordered and received my 3rd one which I installed on my General.

Spot-Hogg without a doubt

any of the G5 sights are amazing a little money but its worth it

RE: The best sight available... What might it be?
 

All the sights mentioned above are great! However, after owning several of them, I found one that I couldn't beat for the quality and price. That sight is a Sword Sight. Danny and Channy are two of the nicest people to deal with and the quality they put out is second to none. They have a wide variety to choose from. Here is a link to their website. http://www.swordacusite.com Check them out! You won't be sorry!

I'm tackin on a G5 ME w/ .19 fibers to my ross 334 just after christmas, spent a little time at the shop fondling one with a tech that was installing and dialing in for a customer, it is one trick little piece, i was impressed as hell with it... build quality seems to be second to none, lightweight being made from Magnesium and has a great fit/finish... i'm anxious to try it
