RE: Peep rotation driving me nuts!
Here is an idea....Ditch the peep....I am serious. If bowhunting is your game, there really is no need for a peep sight. I am by NO MEANS a great shot, but I can hold some real respectable groups at 30 yards, and can drive tacks at 20 without a peep. My hunting buddy can hold 4" groups with BH's at 40 yards.
Shooting without a peep gives you a much better sight field, and it gives you extra shooting time in low light. Personally I feel a peepsight is a hinderance when it comes to bowhunting. Now if your thing is punching paper, then they can't be beat.

use the rubber to hook to your peep. i tried to use one that doesnt use a rrubber and the pro shop guy said you have to mess around to get it to line up i didnt really want to have a nice buck come by andits out of line!!!!!!! i know people will say that rubber will come off but if you replace it often it will only come off every 1000 or so shots.i have used one for many many years now and it hasnt let me down yet!!!!!but who knows!!

RE: Peep rotation driving me nuts!
I tookthe peepoff tonight.My groups were as tight as they werewith the peep but I was two inches low and left. I'll adjust my sights because my groups were really nice.My head isin a more natural position now - I think my peep was craning my neck. My bow also seems a little quieter which I didn't expect. The best thing is how much better I can see the target. This should help with hunting situations, especially in low light.
