Looking for a sight with very bright pins
 
Im looking into getting a new sight that has very bright pins. My sight right now does an alright job, but i compared mine to another persons one night and mine got blown out of the water. Any reccomendations on one that isnt super expensive? THanks

Tru-Glo Extreme is in the $50 range I think. Very bright pins.

There are a myriad of sights out there w/ bright pins. Cobra makes a fine sight, as does Montana Black Gold, Toxonics, Spott hogg, Copper John, the list goes on.

But for the money, IMO the Cobra Boomslang is difficult to beat. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but it's really bright w/ a great price.

my toxonics is extremely bright. I actually had to put tape over the 40 yrd pins fiber optic coil to tone it down.

Vital Gear Triangle is super bright. I can hunt with it until it is too dark to spot your aim point, which
means I don't need a brighter pin. They sell a 3 pin all green model. The green is definitely the brightest
and I don't know why people would confuse their pins. It's still in the Cabela's bargain cave for $99
(I think it is in there b/c they made some minor cosmetic adjustments to the new one not cause it sucks).

Most of the nicer sights out now have the option of installing a light that shines on the fiber optic and makes all your pins glow, and i believe it's legal in most states (correct me if im wrong). I forget the name of my sight but it's the one where all the pins are vertical and i have a light on it and i love that sight, it's my sight of choice.

IMO you don't want the "brightest sight" out there. They are so bright you get a glare and can't see the target, all you see is a big glow of pins.

Don't go too bright, the Halo effect is annoying.

I really love my Spot Hogg Hunter Hogg-It with the Hogg Wrap and Light on it. I never use the light except when in the blind. But the pins were glowing while it was still dark Tuesday morning when I was in my stand. Plus I get the finest adjustments available...:D

My HHA OL 5000 single pinis the sight I've always wanted. Real bright at low light. I'm very happy with it!:)

you will hear the entire gamet on what sights are brite ect. I have the RT-900 okay it's brite and small, not the brightest. I have a tru glo it's okay. I have an HHa single pin sight VERY BRIGHT if your looking for something like that. I had an IMPACT ARCHERY sight3 pins. It is a simple sight but naturally the brightest sight I have owned. It is currently on the Mrs. hunting set up and she loves it.

IMPACT ARCHERY give it a look

I'd have to agree with the Black Gold. I've got the photochromatic one on my bow. The pins are remarkably bright without the necessity of a light. I can see the pins well into the low light hours. Now if I could only get a clear picture through the peep at those times I'd be set...

Seriously, though, from what I hear it also comes with a great warranty attached. If it gets damaged in any way, the manufacturer will see it gets fixed or replace the sight. Good peace of mind...

The best/brightest pins ive seen are the ones GMMAT uses, him and Rob both have pics just catch up with one of them. Viper Micro or somthin like that.
