I had the .019 in my first bow ealier this year. My new rig has .010 and I like them a lot better.

Aim small, miss small.

Like muzzyman88 said.....it's personal preference.

I used to use .029, I started using .019 this season. No way I'm going back!

.019's are perfect for hunting... I wouldnt mind having some .010 on my bottom pins.
This is exactly how I have my Viper sight set up. Works perfect for practicing those 50+ yd shots.

my top pin is .019 my bottom 4 are .010


my old sight was .029 and my groups shrank quick when i switched. especially the longer range groups...

i found that the .010s fad out quicker in the low lighting conditions...the .019 stays visible till its far past shooting time....

next year i may got top 2 .019 and the rest .010....i dont know if its necessary though

Great.. Thanks Guys!!

Kind of what I figured, .019 seems to be a good compromise.. I would still like to mix and match my
pins but from what I've been finding out only a few manufactures will mix them up for you...

Sword will do any configuration you want.

Good post! I have been wondering the same for a new sight... I am leaning towards a .019 4 pin now!
