3-D Scope?
I have a classic scope with a 4X lens with a yellow clarifier. I can see the target great, but I’m having problems seeing the pin. The pin is .019 fiber, lens is center drilled for fiber. I have tried different colors red, green, and yellow. This is the 1st time trying a scope and I don’t know what to try next. Larger pin or maybe put the pin in front of lens(metal tube with fiber pin in it). This set up would be for 3-D only.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

RE: 3-D Scope?
I always had the same problem with a clarifier.I started using a 2 power lens and no clarifier and that was ok but I was much happier with no lens at all.Better than 20/20 vision made it possible to pick my spots and be able to see them when aiming.I just never could get used to the target changing on me with a scope.
Sorry,that probably wasn't what you were looking for but just sharing my experience with that same situation.

RE: 3-D Scope?
Do you have a light on the pin?
If not you could always do what I did get a sight light from LP archery but be warned they are not cheap but worth every penny.
It is fully adjustable as far as brightness goes.
I did use a .019 blue fiber, 6x scope and #2 clarifier with the LP light with no problems at all.

RE: 3-D Scope?
Do you wear glasses? If so that may be the issue. One thing that may help is extending the sight out further.
I for one was never a fan of the yellow califier.....the problem was exactly opposite for me though, made the pin clear as a bell and target fuzzy.
However, I have a stigmatism and must be careful, little things mess me up.....
Did you try a smaller peep?
I am sorry, but it can come from more than one source. None of these are too expensive of a fix though.
