Default Opinion

I posted a couple a days ago about a single pin sight

Come to find out I got the OL5000 HHa which is not the .19 pin - I am shooting excellent with the sight that I have - my concern is that as I go back to 40 yards - will the .29 block out too much of the target - I am not expecting to shoot past 30 yards this fall

so would you exchange the sight for a .19 or leave it alone - I like the fact I can see and was consistenetly keep arrows in a quarter sized target last night so it is not a concern at 20-25 yards

As Landon said, leave it.That's the exact sight I use and last year I killedthe first 3 deer (2 doe and a 7pt)that I shot at with my new '07 Vectrix XL, and hit exactly where I was aiming. If it makes a difference, they were 30yrds, 25yrds, and 10yrds. Great sight! I love this pic.

If thats your max distance than keep the .029, It will draw in more light in lower lighted situations than the 19 will.

If you are shooting quarter size groups at your max hunting yardage, LEAVE IT ALONE. I think that is one mistake a lot of bowhunters make, always wanting to improve something that is not broke. I preferr .19 pins myself, but that is just my preferrence. Quarter size groups at your max hunting yardage puts deer in the back of the truck!!!!
