I called my buddy who picked out the peep when I got my bow and it is a 1/8" peep. My bow is at my office or I would have measured it before posting....lol

But that does make sense about moving thesight out. That should also make my .019" pins cover even less of the target area, right? I have the Extreme Sight and I think that I can go out one more set of holes.

double lungem, many folks use the .019 pins for their 20 and 30 yard pins and get the .010 pins for farther distances. it really does help.

If you center the gang and center the ring in your peep you'll shoot much tighter groups. It really becomes automatic after a while. I don't even see the peep anymore unless I make a conscious effort. All you see are the pins and the target.... mostly the target if you do it right. It all just falls into place after a while.

Mr Mil[8D]....holly crap....i have been doing it all wrong....centering each pin that is (dang M-16 Training!), depending on the distance of the target....i am not a bad shot even though i have been doing it this way....guess i got some work to do...


Thanks again, Bo
