I finally got this elusive hog. He kept coming in right after shooting light, but still during legal shooting hours. I hunt under a heavy canopy and it gets dark there 1/2 hour before the more open spots. Twice I heard him come in, but wouldn' t show until it was too dark to shoot. I had to sit up in my tree until he left. Friday he showed up again, but thanks to my " invention" I could see enough to shoot. I put a piece of white tape on my 20 yard pin about 1/4 inch square. Using that and the spot-hogg white ring on my sight I could center it all in my peep. I double lunged him, although a little high. He made it 20 yards in 5 seconds and that was it. He weighed 140 dressed.

If Mepro-pins are legal where you hunt put one of them in your sight and you won' t have a problem. Green or amber work better for me than red. Also the bigger diameter mepro works better for me than the small one.

Mepro lighted sights are not illuminated by batteries or any other electrical source and are therefore P&Y legal. They are illuminated by tritium.
