Default Extreme archery sites good?

Any reviews I like the look of them and seem real bright. I need to renew my sites but would like to know any opinions.

I have an rt900 and i love it. its very bright and durable. you can get a hold of an rt900 for around 60 bucks or so off of ebay. they are really nice sights for the money.

They are not a Bad sight but I do think there are better sights out there. Depending on what you are looking for I like Spot Hoggs, HHA, and Viper sights.

I've got a couple of them... If you get one, make sure it's got the newer full-containment pins much like Spot Hogg's are. They also make a pin guard to protect a weak spot where the fibers can be easily snapped off in brush now.

My only real complaint with them is the size of the round pin guard; I like Spot Hogg's large pin guard (2 3/8") because it marries up perfectly with a 1/4" Fletcher Tru Peep.

Pin guard size and peep size is determined by anchor point and even A to A on a bow. For me the 3/16" Meta peep works perfect with the Spot Hogg large pin guard. For hunting I prefer the bigger pin guards.

I just prefer a bigger uncluttered field of view, and that's why I use the single pin HHA rear slider with the large pin guard.
