Default Sight Preference

What's everyone use? Multiple pins, single pin, pendulum. I've used nothing but a pendulum for 12 years and recommend it to anyone that hunts from a tree

I have never tried the pendulum, always shot 4 pin sights maybe something I might look into.

if your not satisfied with your 4 pin or hate having to judge the distance to the deer or whatever your quarry then make a switch to a pendulum sight. i shoot the trophy ridge mantis V-Drive and i couldnt ask for a better sight on my bow.5-40 yards in a tree with no judgment of yardage, i can hit a pop can 3 out of 4 times.

I prefer a single pin sight for hunting. clean sight picture and no "I used the wrong pin" excuse. Mine is sighted dead nuts at 25 yards and I killed a doe at just over 45 yards saturday morning with it. Just held almost at her back.

I'm going to get me a five pin fixed sight for 3d shooting. Single pin sight bump you to a longer peg.
