peeps with straps
I was wandering about the peep sights with the ruber straps. Are thay realy good for hunting? Do thay make anay extra noise? I was thinking thay would be great becouse it would always be inline perfect. I curently use the kind with 3 string places and on too many ocasions it was dificult to see right. I have noticed that many of the band kind have the smaller size holes, with sucks for hunting. I was wandering if thare are some high quality ones avalable with the larger size holes? Apreciat some info if ya got it. Thanks James.

I used to have one. I have noticed that you have to keep an eye on it , if you want to keep your eye, because they can come undone and snap back in at your eye. Mine came undone 2 times and I tied it on real good at the end. I took it off and got a new one.

RE: peeps with straps
yes they make noise and with today's high quality strings, they have pretty much become obsolete. Their purpose was to ensure the peep aligned every time, good pre-stretched stings takes care of that.

RE: peeps with straps
I use to use one but did away with it after one broke in the woods on me. Then I just started taking the extra trouble to make sure I got the peep in correctly. If the string stretched or changed I moved the peep or twisted the string. Then I went to the loop, no more need for all that fuss.

I didn't like the tubing you didn't know when it was gonna break and you have to change it almost every season .I use the Fletcher peep medium now and I should have been using it all along.
