I agree with Stickbow a.k.a. Walt! Vital Bow Gear makes a very bright sight. I switched from HHA to VBG becuse they are much lighter also. The VBG is also easier on the wallet if that matters.

Don, While I sell all the sights listed above, my personal choice is the HHA Optimizer Ultra with the large pin guard, and 10' of fiber optic wrap.
The Rheostat pin guard allows you to adjust the pin brightness to conditions.
If the moon is out my pin lights up. I have noticed setting in a tree stand in the morning that I can see my pin way before I could ever see a deer well enough to shoot at.
I'm really not sure why a light or a brighter pin would be of any advantage.
I have 2 of these sights on my personal bows and they are easy to sight in, quick to adjust, andsuper rugged.
I'll soon have a third one!!

It the newer HHA with the dial adjust. It's what I have on my hunting bow. I've had one on my hunting bow for 2 years now. It will more than likely be 3yrs next year.

What's that?

There's the best, and there's all the rest! HHA is the best/brightest.

That's the overwhelming answer on AT too in this same thread. I have always used Black Gold radiant sites with skycoil technology and they are superbright, but I want a one pin sight..

Don-I have used the HHA sights for a couple of years now and I like them a lot. They are well built, bright and easy to adjust. Having said that, I am anxious to see one of the new Spot Hogg single pin sights. They are new for '09 and info is scarce right now. After shooting Spot Hogg fixed pin sights for a while I think this could be the only sight that could "one up" the HHA.

My mom (God rest her soul) once told me a long time ago, if you hear the same thing from enough people, you should begin to believe them. Kind of like the Lone Wolf thing.

I Love Spot Hogg sights and I think their multi pin sights are the best on the market.
I'll reserve judgement on the single pins until I get one in my hands and judging from past new products that could be a while.
I undoubtedly will have one on a Bow to test at some point!
