RE: What type of sights
I just did a "Report" over on the Technical forum about the "Trophy Ridge Flatliner Extreme" w/ my thoughts on that particular model.
Trophy Ridge also has a few others out including the Matrix.
If you ARE interested in that style......you might wan to also check out www.hhasports.com
They have a new sight which is similar in design to the Flatliner called the "Triple Threat".
I had a few issues with my Flatliner that might not exist on the HHA sight.
I do feel that this up-pin style has definite advantages over "side pins" for shooting at game animals.
If a traditional pin sight is your preference the market is really flooded with good ones these days almost to the point where it comes down to "Aesthetic preference".....SME, Cobra, Montana Black Gold, Copper John, etc etc....all make a fine product.
I'm pretty partial to these up pin style sights so I might just have to get one of those new "Triple Threat" sights from HHA and see how they compare.
I did just get a slider sight from HHA "Optimizer Lite" 4600 that is also an "Up-Pin" single pin moveable sight that is VERY well made.
If the "Triple Threat" is of the same quality construction, it is definitely one to look at.

RE: What type of sights
I wouldn't mind seeing a report (I mean opinion<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>) on that HHA Matt. I'm using a trophy ridge also. I took a look at their products online after I read about HHA from you guys and I think I'd like to give them some serious consideration. If I had seen them first, I might have that Triple Threat matt was talking about. They have alot of other models to choose from though. So it sounds like your pleased with what you've seen so far, huh Matt.
The flatliner is the only "new wave" site I've used so I can't comment on the others mentioned, but I'd trust that they are probably well made also.

RE: What type of sights
I used to use a crosshair type sight because it was so easy to center in my peep, just happened naturally. I switched to a Cobra fiber optic a while back to see what the newer technology was like and am still using it. The pin dots really stick out.
I am interested in the Trophy Ridge but want to see one on a bow first hand before buying.
