Default 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?

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?

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.
