What size peep are yall using with your hha ds xl5519 with 2" sight housing ? I have a 1/4 inch peep now but I cant see the whole sight housing thinking of moving up to a 5/16 peep.

Whatever it takes. It might be different for different people. Size of the round guard, draw length, distance the peep is from the eye all make for a different answer.

Personally I don't worry about seeing the housing, but for hunting I usually use the largest peep I can get. That's normally 1/4" or 5/16". I know I don't torque the bow so my anchor is consistent enough to get sufficient accuracy for hunting. I could robably do without a peep altogether, but old habits die hard.

1/4" and you can't see what you need to see??? Something's not right, 1/4" is a LARGE peep, and that housing ain't that big. I'm thinking your anchor is wrong. I have 3/16" on most of my bows, and they circle a 2" housing with a little room to spare at 29" - 29.5" draw. Have the same thing on a 25" draw bow for the wife and it's sufficient, not sure what the issue is. Are you sure you don't have a 1/8" peep. I shot 1/8" peeps, for a spell, but they were just too difficult to get enough light through in low-light conditions, so I went back to 3/16".

Not sure whats going on . Maybe my peep is to high ? I also just put this sight on my bow. I think Im going to untie the peep and move it down to see if that makes a difference. Pretty sure its a 1/4" I can take a 1/4" drill bit and it starts to go into the hole in the peep tight. Ill let you know how it turns out.
