peep sights
ok,
I have been shooting for more than 2 years now and after training a lot I don't see any more improvement on my grouping.
So I'm going to try and get the improvement by trying out some new gear.
I have a big holed peep and find that I have different views in and outdoors due to light conditions. Indoors I have a more visible ring of light centering the peep into the ring of my sight.
I've been looking at this peepsight that might change the whole thing. I am looking to hear your opinions about it;

did you ever think about trying a "timberline no-peep''? my wife is having some similar issues and we are going to try it out. it's supposed to help minimize bow torque and improve form without having to look through a peep. if you think you want to try this product, you can find them on cabelas website and ebay for around $45. good luck.

Maybe you could take a look at the Specialty line of peep sights. There are a couple versions, each using threaded inserts of different sizes. You could get a 3D set that includes all the inserts from 1/16" up to 3/16, I believe. As I said, there are a couple different models. This would allow you to just change the insert when going from insdie to outside.
The only thing I see about the peep you are looking at is that those cross hairs would just seem to block out available light and I don't know that having the peep so close to the eye would make those crosshairs all that visible anyway.
Of course, I could be wrong about it. Your eyes would certainly be younger than mine so may work well for you. You never know till you try.

They might be worth a try.One problem I can see is they might add some confusion to the sight picture.I would suggest trying a smaller conventional peep first.Nothing more than 3/16".That's what I'm using now but am considering going to the 5/32".Mine-
