your favorite pin color
I am just currious what color everyone perfers on their sight pins?
Green seems to be the most vissible for me, followed by the yellow then red. If I could find a different color to replace the red I sure would. Red is great during the day, however, at dusk is difficult for me to see. But I will just have to make due for now. Are there any other colors out there beside Red, yellow and green? |
RE: your favorite pin color
I have the same preferences. Having the red pin as the bottom of three was a big factor in my decision to buy a Copper John sight. Red fades the fastest in low light.

I agree green is the brightest pin on my sight. I shoot two pins Green @ 25 yds and red @ 35 yds. If I can't see my pins clearly I won't shoot. In fadinf light the 35 yard pin disappears first and so dose the shooting opportunity. The green pin is visiable for another 10-15 minutes and if they'll come in to 30 yards and I can see the pin I'll let it fly. Also I'll note I often shoot in low light condition just for this purpose.

I have my red as my 40 yd pin. it fades the fastest, so if i can't see the red pin I better not shoot as there may be a twig ect in the way that i also can't see. Green is my 20 yd. If they are inside of 20 yards and my green is still glowing I should be ok to shoot. I've also noticed that by looking at my watch the green pin fades almost exactly at the end of shooting time (1/2 hr after sunset) of course its a little off on cloudy days.

Green is my personal favorite, then yellow. Red is ok but I only use that one for target shooting.

RE: your favorite pin color
Green is my fav as well, followed by yellow and then red.

RE: your favorite pin color
Yup, seems like we all do...I like the green first, yellow second and red third......but I know the yellow last longer in low light and sooner in the morning but if it's too dark to see the red pin, it's too dark to shoot.....Green shows up first and fades out last.
