Peep sight alternatives...
 

I am at the point that I HATE my peep sight....I was thinking of a No Peep, but we were talking at the shop tonight and aren't sure they will work on Hoyt's tec riser....

Anyone have any firsthand experience?

Answered in PM, nevermind.

I love my peep mobow, is yours turning or whats goin on?

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

I tried the No Peep for about a week and couldn't shoot a group at all. I put a peep back on and was back to shaving flechings the next day.

Myboss has the Hind Sight. He loves it. I guess it's like having rifle sights on your bow.

I guess I would wonder as well what kind of problems your having with it? Why don't you like it?

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

I hate my peep too - because it is difficult to shoot in low light. It does have a large hole (3/16). I tried the no peep last year and my groups suffered so I went back to the peep.

I have been considering trying one of these HHA Sports sights with a red dot.

Has anyone tried this set-up??

A Solid Anchor is all you need IMO.

Use an eliminator button on string and when you pull back the v formed by edge of string and button are your back sight works well in low light and have had good luck.

Practice more.[8D] I love a peep, but if I were going to do away with it I'd have a kisser button and probably redesign my anchor to find a more positive feeling point.

I am actually thinking about going back to just looking through the string like in the old days.

OK, turning is just one of the problems I have with a peep. I REFUSE to use a peep w/ rubber tubing....just not gonna do it. The restricted light through the peep dialates my pupil, making the target fuzzy. Add to those 2 the fact that it slows down my arrow a tad....I'm ready to do away with it. I've already removed my kisser, and glad I did! The restricted light/dialated pupil/fuzzy target is the main reason for this .

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

Well a good set of strings would take care of the twisting problem.:D

I've never had the dilating pupil before. Does it happen after the first shot or does it occur after prolonged shooting? Have you tried a bigger peep to let more light in? Have you tried a no peep?

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

The pupil dialation is natural....The small peep restricts light and as you know in low light your pupils dialate......

I am wanting to try a no peep, but my shop owner wasn't sure if it would work w/ the TEC riser.....

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

It looks like the no peep bracket mounts between your sight and the riser. Are the tec risers made differently where that wouldn't be possible?

Nevermind...I just looked at the vectrix and see the problem you may encounter.

Im tellin ya fella, just go get your self a Mathews and get rid of this Hoyt problem.[8D]

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

He's right

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

Yes, and to AID in that solid anchor, I need a peep, or alternative.....;)

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

No thanks. I want a bow that will actually shoot it's advertised speed....;)

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

I always used a peep and still do but in a different way. I still use my peep to line up my site and get my right A-point. Then I open my left eye and look at my pin and target and shoot with both eyes open.I wish I tried this years ago, becuase I never shot better in all the years of shooting a bow. Give it a try this off season.

I got rid of my peep and went to the "No-Peep" . I put a Sure's A peep on my bow and love it . I hunt during the daytime and don't worry about low light ! :)

Get yourself a quality aftermarket string (gibblet) and a specialty super peep with adjustable apertures and your problems are all solved.

RE: Peep sight alternatives...
 

Who makes this super peep, and do they have a website?

Nevermind...found it....wow, that's a pricey peep sight...[8D]
