You can, for a fact, hunt without a peep and shoot pretty good groups as long as your anchor is consistant.
But I do prefer to hunt with a single pin sight like the Sightmaster and its clones vs a multi-pin sight when not using a peep.
Anyone who thinks they cannot shoot goodhunting groups without a peep, try it and see for yourself.
You may be surprised and pleased with the results.

I'd be the last to say you can't! In fact, I never would. Heck, I shoot most often without any sights at all and get good groups. Many guys with sights can't shoot as well as I do without.

But it takes practice and a good bit of it to get there. That's the point I'm making. When you are used to shooting with a peep, you don't just take it off and immediately start shooting great without it. It takes a good bit of practice to get there and be consistent. It's too close to hunting season to get that much practice.

Last year, I ditched my peep and used the No-Peep. This year, I've replaced that with the Anchor Sight, which I think is far superior.

I've never shot without a peep. Don't see any way. I can't hit with one!!!

Another way to do it is to put a small brightly colored serving on your string were the pin intersects your eye , and line your pin up just to the left of it , for a right hand archer .

I one of my backup bows setup with just a kisser button. When I draw I line up the bow string with the right side of my sight pin guard for visual reference. That works really well for me. Takes some practice but becomes 2nd nature after a while.

No-Peep from Timberline is the only way to go.
