HELP - Pins are getting harder to see
 
I shot spot league tonight with a new bow and I can hardly see my pin. I shoot an HAA sight with a green pin and a slider. I Also have one on my old bow that is red and tried that and it still is very blurry. I've tried shooting with my glasses and even bought shooter glasses but it does not help. I shoot best without my glasses. Any suggestions, besides me selling my new bow.

why not just get a diff pin? paint it a diff color? How about those neat little scope looking sights?

Sometimes indoor lighting isn't the same at indoor ranges, some are better than others. Try Lilhunter's advice. As a matter of fact on my hunting sight I see the yellow fiber optic pin better than the green and the green better than the red in low light.

A new eye exam might help.It's possible you need a different prescription.
Speak to you eye Dr. about your problem and let them know the distance to the pins. They should fix you up.
My brother targets with a pistol and had a similar problem, now he wears special glasses when he shoots

ask them to install a black light or turn a light on with dimmer switch, turn up enough
to see optics
hope this helps

Dalton Im assuming that the target faces are well lit,and that your pin is blending with the target face.Ive went through this dilema myself,and found that a black tipped pin shows great contrast,on the target.It really depends on the lighting at your range. Just my opinion.

Don't know if this will help or not, but how about a clarifier peep? I have never tried one but heard that it makes your pin less blurry as you focus on the target.
