It's really a matter of personal preference but;

I really like the trophy ridge micro matrix, I like the micro pins as they give you a smaller target, I like the fact that the sight has vibration dampners, I really like the inline pins as they take up alot less target than the traditional side pins, and they glow pretty good in low light conditions.

not sure if that helps you any but it's my opnion.
just remember it's not what everyone else likes it's what works for you on your bow with your setup, because we are all different, hunt different, shoot different, and even just like the way somethings fit on our bows.

good luck with your choice

Here is a couple of threads posted earlier. Not sure how much help they will be, I tried. The best thing to do is look through this forum and then when your setting up your bow in the shop, try different types. Look for brightness, pin size, ease of use, round sight window. It's all a matter of opinion. Good luck, sorry I couln't help more.

For a pin sight it is hard to go past the Spot Hog range I have a Hogg-it on my hunting bow.

For purely target I have a Copper John ANTS with a Feather Vision Gold scope 6 power center drilled lens with a .020 green fiber of course with the magnification I have a Speciality Archery Hooded Ball peep with a number 2 clarifier

Here's another vote for the Trophy Ridge line of sights. They've been my favorite for years. I've loved the Vertical Pin concept since I first seen it years ago. That being said, the TR's can now behad in a newer angled AX pin for the shooter that still likes that concept but wants the most unobstructed sight picture available. The new '07 TR line is hot and one you should be sure to check out before deciding on any other. Good luck and good shootin'
