Also, consider:
When you have to visually check a device to determine that your form and anchor is correct and consistent, the ability to unconsciously and consistently be in correct form and at correct anchor can never be a completely physical conditioned (mostly unconscious) action. Under hunting conditions, that is not a good thing.
I can go with using the "No-Peep as a temporary training device or a recheck device for shooting form when a shooter has not shot for an extended period, but dependency on the device beyond practice is not something I personally would promote for hunting purposes.
I am under the understanding that the "No-Peep" is not a sighting device, that the chief function of the device is to check form and anchor. If it is not a "sighting" aid, then how does it replace a "string-peep" or how does it function as an eye-to-pin-to-target aid?
Although I do not like or use a "string-peep," the "string-peep" does function as a rear sight and does keep your anchor consistent without having to put too much conscious effort into it other than aligning your pin in the aperture.
Keep in mind, when the moment arrives to make your shot, most of the time you will have but a few seconds to make the shot. Too much dependency upon too many devices….or a particular device, that requires conscious thought, visual alignment/adjustment, and physical adjustment, will cause a visual and mental distraction, will increase the lag time from sight to shot, and can result in a lost shot or a bad shot.

A string peep is completely unnecessary if you can replicate your form on each shot. A no-peep will help train you to do this. You can ignore it competely and still shoot, which is what I do most of the time. I only check it, if my shooting goes haywire. I've been using it on my hunting bow for almost 3 years and I love it.

Hated it , junk in my book . Id rater a hindsight , it has all the benifits [ form check] , [no peep on the string] and is in line of sight , where the nopeep is in your periphial vision .

I guess you can get good and bad feedback on anything. All any of us can do is give our actual experience with the No Peep. In my case, I have had nothing but great success with it. It has become second nature to align the circles and I do not even realize I am doing so. As long as I have a choice I will never go back to a standard peep. I use it with both pins and a pendulum with equal success.

C903,
You seem to be giving your opinion on the NO-PEEP as well as the WHISKER BISQUIT from absolutely no hands on experience what so ever.After you actually try them yourself--then i'll listen to your opinion,and that's just my opinion on the information you give.
