Default Archery Sights

I will start it off with my personal favorite archery sight Spot-Hogg.

Spot-Hogg sights are built from 6061 aircraft aluminum and put through rigorous inspections. All Spot-Hog sights have a white ring around the pin guard to help keep your form the same and as accurate as possible. Levels that are squared off to a vertical wire will also increase your accuracy while sighting in your bow, target shooting, or even while hunting. The Hogg Father, Boss Hogg, Tommy Hogg, Hogg-it , and Hunter sights allow a second and third axis adjustment to get the most accurate and precise sight that any archer would dream about.

Here are some key features that the Spot-Hogg sights have:

Hogg Father: Has quick release knob, horizontal & vertical adjustments, detachable dovetail bar, 2nd & 3rd axis adjustment, no tools needed for windage or elevation adjustments, removable rack for traveling, traveling case, available in 1, 3, 5, or 7 pins. HoggFather allows for shots that are beyond your last pin, but still within effective range. The option to quickly adjust your sight is available and then the lower pin is only needed for great accuracy.

Boss Hogg & Tommy Hogg: 2nd & 3rd axis adjustment, horizontal and vertical adjustments, no tools needed for windage & elevation adjustment, yardage knob, available in 1, 3, 5, or 7 pins. Boss Hogg & Tommy Hogg sights allow for shots that are beyond your last pin, but still within effective range. The option to quickly adjust your sight is available and then the lower pin is only needed for great accuracy.

Hogg-It: Quick release knob, 2nd & 3rd axis adjustment

Hunter: 2nd & 3rd axis adjustment, micro adjustment pins

Real Deal: Micro adjustment knobs and pins

Right On: Micro adjustment pins

What do people think about the yardage knob, available in 1, 3, 5, or 7 pin for the Hogg Father, Boss Hogg & Tommy Hogg sights allowing for shots that are beyond your last pin, but still within effective range. The option to quickly adjust your sight is available and then the lower pin is only needed for great accuracy. This would be great for 3-D or target shooting and maybe even for that bedded mule deer buck out in the middle of nowhere with nothing for a hunter to hide behind to get closer. It would all depend on how many pins you had and what your effective range is.

I Like the Spot Hogg sights and sell several every year, but IMO for a yardage controlled by a knob sight HHA is the best.

Multi-pin sights Spot Hogg are very Good!

I also like the .019 pin size. The .010 pins were just too small and did not work well in low light situations.

Did spot hogg pay you to say that? Geez dude lay off the kool-aid lol. For the record i just picked up a sword apex 3rd plane micro and i like it a lot so far. Id rather have a multi pin sight than a one pin that is adjustable. To me it would be a pain to hunt with an adjustable sight plus you would have to step up to open if you were gonna shoot 3d with it.
