Default Hind sight front/rear sight - Replaces Peep

Has anyone ever tried these? It seems like it would be a good idea. I want to get rid of my peep sight because those last 10 minutes of light are the best hunting and thats too dark to use my peep. It also prevents you from torquing your grip.

You can put it on any sight. It only costs about 30 bucks. I'm thinking about putting one on my Vital single pin sight and getting rid of my peep.

It also prevents you from torquing your grip.
Actually, it supposedly let's you know when you ARE torquing your grip, but only while you're aiming. Doesn't do anything to keep you from doing it.It also doesn't keep you from anticipating the shot and grabbing the handle when you release, which is also a great way to torque the grip. So take that claim with a few tons of salt.

With the peep on the string, your pupils dialate because of the restricted light through the peep. This affects your downrange eyesight, how depends on whether you are near sighted or far sighted. With the recticle on the riser, there is no restricted light thus your downrange vision is better.

I tried the hindsite extreme and a No Peep and I like the No Peep better. Both work but the No Peep is easier to use for me, takes up less space, has less weight and was more accurate for me.

After using the No Peep for a while I took it off and don't use anything now, I just go peepless unless it's a target set up.
