Help me with a sight
I have not shot a single pin sight but am thinking about getting one. I have a Spott-Hog real deal now on my Outback but it's not quite bright enough at low light. I have looked at the HHA, Impact solo, Vital bow gear and the Trophy Taker 4 pin sight. I was concerned about mounting a quiver with the single pin sights but with the Muzzy zero effect rest this has become a non issue. I have a Alpine 5 arrow quiver due to being able to remove it when I get in my stand but will have to go to a back quiver if I keep the Muzzy. I need some help with the sights mentioned, or others, with the following features.
1) Brightness at low light 2) To much brightness in sun light 3) adjustability( I realize the Trophy Taker is not a single pin sight) 4) durability Any help would be greatly appricated. Don |
RE: Help me with a sight
just replace the fiber optics.go to fiberoptics.com and you can purchase the size and color you need.i have don that on several pin sights and they are alot brighter. i love the green for hunting.
its fun and interesting to do and fairly simple and alot cheaper. take the old fiber optic out --stick one end of fiber into sight pin making sure it is all the wayin to the bottom of the pin--cut it just a tad longer at the tip and take a lighter and apply it near the end of the fiber not touching the fiber optic itself and the heat will ball the end of the fiber to the tip--it may take a few trys but it will come pretty easy after you get the hang of it. i did it on all my extreme sights and they work great. its not hard at all but worth the effort. after a period of time all fiber optic gets build up on them and makes them seem rather dull than before. the spot hog is a excellent sight and worth a try. |

RE: Help me with a sight
Yes indeedy. The sight you have described by your requirements is the HHA OL 5000. No plastic on this winner. And it comes with a couple of tube-standoffs that allow you to mount your quiver, even with the ZE rest. I have the same setup on my Pearson Freedom.
