Default What a difference a Peep makes!

I just wanted to share this with you all. I have been very frustrated with my shooting over the last few weeks. My arrows have been flying fairly inconsistently. And if you’re like me you hate to hit the woods without 100% confidence in your shooting and your equipment. So after makes a number of changes and alterations to my bow I bought a 19$ Peep and had it put on. I immediately started shooting great. I put 7 arrows into an area the size of a tennis ball from 20 yards. The problem with my old peep was that it was big and thick and it blocked out too much of my view. I couldn’t even tell if the peep was lined up with my Trophy Ridge Mantis sight. With the new peep it is small and thin so when I view through it, it “disappears” to where I can see a thin blue circle that is translucent. Then I can line up my peep with my sight perfectly. I have my confidence back and I’m shooting great. Just thought I’d share with you all the fact that some of the cheapest fixes on your bow can have a huge effect.

The new peep is the G5® Meta Peep Sight

This is the old Peep sight that was causing me trouble - "Sure Vision Peep"

No peep at all works great for me.

Glad you got it worked out.

The G5 Meta Peep that was originally mentioned in the start of the thread is what I use and I highly recommend it... but make sure to test it before you leave the shop... because the peep may turn as your bow string stretches.
