RE: eliminating my peep sight
 

Well, I am dissappointed. I can't shoot worth a damn with this thing. I have my pins set as far to the right as they can get and it still shoots 4" or so to the right at 20 yards. I can't get my eyes to focus on both the pin and the target at the same time without closing one eye, which negates the whole reason I wanted to go peepless. My eyes either focus on the pin or the target, not both. I guess I am going to go have my peep re-installed today and forget about this nonsense. It was worth a try I guess. I didn't pick up as much speed as I thought anyway. It was shooting 279 fps with the peep and 28" draw. Without the peep and with a 28.5" draw, it was shooting 294 fps. Probably a good part of that speed increase is due to the extra 1/2" draw.

Anyone want to buy a very slightly used no-peep? :D

You're giving up after one day? :) I'd give it two weeks or so before throwing in the towel. It's a big change and takes some time to adjust.

RE: eliminating my peep sight
 

Before giving up, make sure your rest and nockes are tuned. I moved my sight pins all the way over and it wasn't far enought. I looked at the how straight the arrow were going to fly and it was pointing 10 degrees to the right!!!!! This might be it?? Next year I might be going with the no-peep. I'm getting frustrated witht he tubbing of the peep, breaking, slipping off, knotting up, and getting tangled in my cables[:@][:@].
I'd give it another chance.

I may give it another chance after hunting season. I don't want to spend weeks learning to shoot with it and miss all that hunting. I had my peep re-installed today and my speed is 285 fps. I guess that means the peep and tube takes 9 fps away. No big deal really. That amounts to maybe 1/2 yard of range if that.

After season when I can relax and have some fun, I may give it another try. It was a mistake to go and change my setup during hunting season.

Oh, and my rest and nock are tuned and shooting bullet holes. I don't think that was the problem.

RE: eliminating my peep sight
 

This problem has nothing to do with your no-peep. It sounds to me like you just aren't setting it up to your true anchor. If you do not have this problem when using a peep, then you should not have it with a no-peep, as your anchor should be in almost the exact same spot. Some people move one way or the other to avoid looking right at the string, but you should not have to move your anchor enough to have a pin problem, especially to the right, considering the fact that the bracket has effectively moved your entire sigh t to the right a small amount.

RE: eliminating my peep sight
 

I used a peep for many years but got frustrated when most of the action really started at dusk and when I would draw on a deer and it was to dark to see through the peep sight! So a few years ago I started to shoot without it and shooting with both eyes open. Never go back to the peep! Shooting witn both eyes open & no peep allows me to stay out until the very last light!
