Electronics on bows and arrows are illegal in Washington, so I chose a sight that is naturally bright.
Montana Black Gold Flashpoint.
The only light in the picture is coming from the television.

The Truglow Tru Site Xtreme Pro Series would be a great sight for what you are looking for.Very bright pins with tooless adjustments for sighting in.Also with markings for elevation and windage for only $55.00 through Lancasters. www.lancasterarchery.com The pins are .029 and that is about right for hunting.
I prefer that my pins NOT be that bright because of the halo the bright pins create but in an actuall hunting situation it isn't a problem.

Truglow has even cheaper onesthat are very good.
The halo I am referring too is the pin actually looks bigger than it is because the light it gathers and it doesn't give you a defined edge but rather it is kinda blurry around the edges,You will rarely see bright pins on an outdoor target rig for this reason.

Oh yea,check your game laws,all states have laws and most have laws against hunting at night.I would think hog hunting at night would be kinda dangerous but I don't hunt them so I can't say for sure.

NO BEEN DOIN IT FOR YEARS AND ALREADY CHECKED IT OUT LOTS OF PEOPLE HUNT HOGS AT NIGHT YOU COULD EVEN PUT A LIGHT UNDER THE FEEDER AND GET THE HOGS THAT WAY BUT IT IS ONLY FOR HOGS NO DEER OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT UNLESS ITS A COON OR PORCUPINE ...SO DO YOU THINK THAT PIN HALO WILL MAKE THE SSIGHT NO USEFULL OR ARE YOU ONLY TALKIN ABOUT WHEN YOU TURN ON THE LIGHT
