Default Need advice on bow site

Last year I had a hog walk up to me. It was almost dawn and i could not see my sites. The hog walked away.
Do you thinkthis site would help to see in the pre dawn time?
Thanks,
Chuck7














Compact, lightweight all-metal sight body and pins. Three .029'' fiber optic pins are enhanced by over 2' of coiled light-gathering fibers per pin to ensure that when the shot presents itself you'll be ready. Metal frame also features dual mounting holes, quiver, and a gang adjust dovetail for both windage and elevation adjustments. Orange glow ring for fast peep centering and target acquisition. Perfect in low-light conditions. Bronze anodized finish.

I would have to say the pins look like they will be bright but I don't have that sight so it is hard to say. But any of the new sights out now are really bright.

I have two that are very bright. The brightest that Ihave is on my new Tribute I bought last friday. This one is Very Bright andI have already been out in my yd well after dark to try it and can still see the pins. My other sight is a fuse and it is bright too; but not like this Black Gold Radiant with skycoil technology www.blackgoldsights.com

I also purchased one on the Tru Glo sights with the light and it is great, very very bright and not all that expensive.

The longer the fiber optic the more light you will have at the end of the pin. Mosthave an optional light that can be attached

I personaly use a Vital Bow Gear three pin angled sight.
It has very bright pins in low light (predawn)
ThinkI paid about 129.00 for it.
You can check them out at www.vitalgear.com
good luck
