peepsights
 
I' ve just started to shoot with a release and am having trouble with a consistent anchor point. I already use a kisser button but am wondering if a peep sight would provide another constant as an anchor. Oh by the way I shoot using a pendulum sight(Savage). Would the peep sight work with a pendulum sight? Does anyone have any experience using a pendulum sight with a peep sight?
Thanks.

The peep acts as a rear sight on a gun.

Yes, it will help tremendously, for accuracy.

But will a peepsight work with a pendulum sight, not fixed-pin sights?

Pendilum does not matter.......same benefit as on fixed pins !

I don' t use a pendulum sight but I think you should consider the No Peep. It works GREAT with my Archers Choice Grizzly sight bit it is supposed to work even better with the pendulum sight. Just repeating what I have read but no experience.

Personally, I would take off the kisser button and go with a peep. I think that the peep offers more when trying to aim than does the kisser. By switching the peep with the kisser, you' re not going to be adding more weight to your string to slow it down either.

Good question, I used a peep sight for 3 years altought I tried variuos brands and sizes I never shot as consistant as I felt I should or had before switching from fingers to a release. Knowing I needed an anchor point ; now that I didn' t have my fingers in the corner of my mouth it seemed logical to use a peep sight both as an anchor and aiming aid. Probelms started early for me and never went a away, not enough light, too big a hole that centering it on my front pins (at the time) was to vauge. This time last year my goal was to elimanate it before bow shooting got serouis in July. Alot of reserch went into me ending up with the Timberline No Peep. THIS THING IS A GOD SEND TO ME. Works great as an achor. great for alinment and getting rid of bow torque, nothing on my string to slow it down. It just so happens I also use a Savage Pendulum Max sight and took two deer from 16' up, one at 7 yards and another at 18. Can' t say enough about it ,others I hunt with use it with a pendulum and love it also. Check it out!!!

Yes, using a peep sight will improve your accuracy. I have a buddy that uses a peep with a pendulum and he really likes it.

Thanks for all the replies. I' ve put on a regular peepand am feeling, and shooting, more confidently.
jersey, I shoot a basic savage pendulum with a metal window. It has an orange pin.
