Light on your sight?
 
Im debating weather or not to spend 30 bucks for a light, to put on my sight to brighten up the pins for low light situations.
Do you guys use it, and if so do you thinks its something thats important?

Its pretty nice to have. Heck I enjoy shooting out in the yard after dark.... worth $30 to me just to mess with it outside. But yes, sometimes it is nice to have a little back light. If you are dropping $30 I hope you are getting one with adjustable brightness... most of the single setting ones are WAY WAY too bright.

Ya know I've had 2 ..never used'em. If you have a top quality sight, You'll see your pins long after you can see through your peep.

Not legal in Illinois either. But it is a good idea, as long as the pins aren't lit up enough to keep you from seeing your target.

ohh. well anyways
my uncle brian got in a dirtbike accident last year so we made him a bow-rig that fixes to his wheelchair. it keep the bow at full draw, with a piece of leather at the back of the release to bite on and aim with

well he has to hunt from a blind, and he uses one because it tends to get dark in the blind at duskish
