HHA Optimizer Lite-It's a one pin, fiber optic, adjustable sight. It also has a light you can use in low light. I put this sight on my CyberTec and loved it so much, that I also ordered one for my Bowtech EX VFT! Check them out @

i use a ez bow sight it requires no peep and no kisser very accurate.i also shoot local archery competitions in the hunter's class and found out that its excellent for long shots also where torque is critical as it is in the deer stand when seconds count.won a few tournaments with it not to mention taken a few py bucks that with a peep i wouldn't have been able to shoot late enough or quick enough.a friend of mine uses the ez bow sight also with 30 mature gobblers and several py bucks to his name.very accurate and durable sight ez bow sight 800-331-7099

Cabelas, I set my Cosmic on 25 yds. That covers me to 35. Yes, to change the pin setting you have to loosen the screws and move it. If the deer are not coming in as close as anticipated, you could adjust it. Otherwise just hold a little over or under to compensate. Some practice makes this second nature.

cabelas4toys - See if you can find a local shop to try one out !! It is really simple to adjust. Out of all the set up's I've had (pedilums,...2,3,4 pin units)and with what I've learned from my hunting situations I like it the best so far !! With most modern bow speeds and a little practice you can get away with one pin easily within normal deer hunting ranges (30 yrds and less).
Did anyone mention it's briggggghhhhhhttttt!!!! LOL

So do you mark the rest somehow so that you know where your 30, 40, 50 yard positions are?

Yeah , You have to mark your yardage but it's easy to do !! I just made a small chart ,cut it to fit the provided space on the sight, and taped it on .I made some referrence marks under the paper in case it comes off. It has worked fine for me !

Cabelas, the Cosmic comes with a white sight tape. There's a pointer next to it that move with the scope. I make a long mark for even yardage (20, 30, etc) and a short mark for odd (25, 35, etc). Use a pencil so you can erase the marks, should you change your setup.
--- 35
------ 30
--- 25&lt;---
------ 20
This doesn't look right in the post, but it shows the idea.

HHA Optimizer Lite! One pin is great for hunting, simple and uncluttered. For 3D its adjustable. Great all around sight! The Impact Archery Cosmic Air Lite is very similar and also a good choice. Its really bright!

PRACTICE....PRACTICE....PRACTICE......SUCCESS!

That's very interesting, I've never thought about a single pin sight before. I just bought a new bow and was considering the Trophy Ridge Matrix but now I think I need to take a closer look at the Cosmic and Optimizer.
