RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

Hyawatha, thats it. I like the no-peep but do not like the :|. I think I' ll try a Sightmaster Elite 2000 sights. Anyone ever try one of these?

RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

OK, I played with it more and got a brain storm.

I flipped the mount around so it is now going the same direction of my sight. Mounted in the top mount as high as it will go and pushed as much as possible towards my sight.

Now it is up and out of the way. I can see it.

The thing is, I' m leaving my peep on! I have it set so I can see it through my peep. It tells me if I' m off just a little!

Pin point accurate. The peep I have is the big hole with 3 string guides. This is what I learned with and what I am use to. Still feels like it always has, and my peep splits the string!

OK, I' m leaving them both on!!!

Even with my peep, it tells me when I' m off, and I like it now!

vaboy,

The no-peep should have nothing to do with your problem. It should have nothing to do with the position of your face/anchor and the pins. When you have a good anchor where you can see the pins clearly then you just need to position the no-peep so that it is pointed properly toward your eye when you are in that anchor position. It can be placed in quite a few positions just so it is pointed toward your eye so that the dot and ring center correctly when you are in your anchor position.

davidmil, I can' t imagine how anyone could have trouble with a no-peep moving. I have had one on two different bows for about five years and have hiked in many miles for Dall' s sheep and caribou in AK and a good part of most of the initial walks are through HEAVY brush. My son, who stalks for mule deer, elk and turkey in his home state of NM has hunted here with me. I have hunted there crawling around cactus and brush with him. In addition I have climbed up mountains for sitka deer in Prince William Sound through extremely heavy brush. He has his no-peep on a Martin and I have had mine on two different Hoyts and neither of us have ever had any movement of a no-peep. Sometimes we have had to bushwack through salmon berry thickets (like raspberries but much larger bushes) and alders and willow brush. Many times I have had to pull scraps of brush off my sights, cams, and yes, my no-peep. No movement ever and all we do is tighten down the bolts, no loc-tight or anything.

Neither my son, nor his hunting partner, nor I wound want to be without our no-peeps. The latest models are even much easier to adjust vertically. They really help in the low light of hunting conditions when you can' t see through a peep.

Good luck!:D

Ok guys, left the peep on and I must say. I' m impressed!

The makers of the no-peep need to supply a bag of nocks with each purchase.

If I shoot more then twice at the same bull, a nock is coming off or a fleching gets messed up.

RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

Glad to see you are figuring it out Hyawatha. I line my pins up just to the outside of the string which is a fuzzy line in my vision at full draw. Give it some time and make it work for you. Don' t get caught trying to adjust yourself to it though. Draw and anchor with your eyes closed and then open them- it should be dead on. If you put your bow away for a year and get it out and draw it, you' ll be able to anchor exactly the same or it will show you that you aren' t.

Cubdriver has this one figured out. I must also respectfully agree with davidmill. These guys haven' t taken the time to adjust the device to thier form. They don' t move when tight, or your sight would be moving also and no, the adjustments are solid too so I' m not buying them moving. You obviously didn' t give it a chance and those buddies most likely are the ones " moving" , not the nopeep.

IMO, it is a very usefull peice of equipment and far superior than a conventional peep for hunting. I have to think some people are too lazy to use a tool that is so much more precise and repeatable than they are willing to be, no offence to any fellow members or their buddies of course:D. Seriously Dave, I have one that isn' t in use at the moment that I could loan you if you want to give it an honest try and find out for yourself. You' ll be laughing at those guys who can' t maintain a consistent anchor from day to day. I promise!

Once you get used to it you won' t even give it a second thought. I don' t have to take my eye' s off of the pins with it set like this.

My No Peep cost me $12.00 last week for new vanes on six arrows and another dozen nocks.

If your No Peep is moving I would believe that it is pointing out an error in form. When I installed mine, I waxed the threads on all the screws used in the installation and it is solid.

My No Peep points out the slightest error and even points out when I don' t bend my bow arm elbow properly which is a painful and bad habit.

RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

OK. Finally got the no-peep figured out. Once you get it set up correctly, it will bring you to a consistent anchor every time. I haven' t had any trouble with mine coming loose either. I did change my pins from .019 to .029 because my eyes aren' t what they used to be. No more string peeps or kissers for me.

RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

Hey VAboy, I was just wondering why you don' t want to use a peep sight? I use one and haven' t had any trouble with em. Cheers.;)

RE: I can' t see my sight pins!
 

Steve, I' ve been using a peep for 15+ years. Then I ran across this No Peep from Timberline Archery Products (there are also other brands out there). It does take a little getting used to but once you have it exactly where it needs to be it works perfectly. Brings you to the same anchor every time. Gives you a better field of vision, no need for a peep or kisser, maybe pick up a few fps, and in my case, improved accuracy. And I' ve only been shooting the thing 6 days. Don' t mean to sound like an advertisement but I am loving mine.
