RE: your favorite pin color
Last year, it was green, yellow and red.
I see the yellow sight best though, so it's now at the top. Red is at the 40 yard mark for the reasons already given. I have two more, smaller diameter pins starting over with yellow, then green for 50 and 60 yards--STRICTLY FOR PRACTICE.

RE: your favorite pin color
I agree green is tha brightest, but my eyes actually contrast the red pin against all of the green background and the deer hide better than the green. So I shoot a red pin when possible. I also use a sight light for my red pin on late shots.

Mine are green, yellow, red, yellow, and red. I really for some reason can see the green much better. A friend of mine has yellow as his top pin. It fades out last for him.

Green for 20 and red for 30.
Can you still get replacement pins for a five year old sight?
It is a Accua, one base on bow and I have two sights that slide into the base. One for pratice and one for Hunting. The pins are clear plastic full threaded with the fiber optic running throuh it...thanx.
