RE: No Peep Users
I liked it for target shooting but removed it because it didn' t work well for my style of hunting. Low light conditions made it difficult to see.
One positive note is that it did help me and after I removed it I didn' t miss it..the improvements remained without it,

RE: No Peep Users
I just installed one and set it up last week and have had three outings on my own range with it (I' d have shot more but weather has been less than cooperative-but we need rain badly in the foothils and lowlands And we only have half of the snowpack in the cascades we need).
I have found that it is easy to get used to. The only quandry I have had is my own; whether to aim with my right dominant eye or my left. The decision was made today to use the left for a better sight picture. Being an old instinctive archer, I never bent my elbow in my past but need to with my Mathews and other compound bows. I frequently forget that little bend . . . and the No Peep picks it up every time.
As for low light situations the No Peep forces good form and you do not need to see the No Peep in low light conditions as long as you can see your pins. I found with a peep, I couldn' t see the pins to shoot in low light situations anyway. My second outing created an $11.00 bill at my pro shop for fletching repairs and new nocks. I' m Sold!
I believe the No Peep is well worth the effort to install and learn to use

RE: No Peep Users
Hey Woodbow, what problems did you have with the no-peep in low light condiitons? I bought the No-Peep as for most people that bought it, for the benefit in low light conditions. It has also tightened up my groups by making me very consistant. Once you get it set up and tightened down, you' re either anchoring the same way or your not....there' s no in between. It wasnt that hard to set up and I think it wise a wise purchase. It didn' t take that much to get used to either and actually find myself not even having to look at it much anymore. Don' t get me wrong, it' s stayin on my bow and I promise I' ll be taking a little peek at it when I' m at full draw on the big boy.
Hope this helps.

Woodbow,
I' m not sure what problem you would have in low light, as that is one of the benefits of the NoPeep. I myself have regularly been shooting with mine in almost total darkness, putting in tight groups at 25 yards. I wonder if maybe the one that you had was defective?

RE: No Peep Users
I have had one on two different bows and my son also has one. When they are set correctly the real plus is that they are VERY visible in extremely low light. I could see mine long after the pins disappeared and I went to brighter pins in order to be able to see them as well as the no-peep in the dim lighting one encounters in hunting. I fail to see how anyone wouldn' t find them helpful in low light hunting situations. One comment I will make is that they don' t show up as well in artificial light at an indoor shooting range as they do in natural light when outdoors.
