No Peep Users!
How many people are using a no-peep? I just went back to my old one from about 5 years ago and I really seem to like it. It was a pain in the A** to set up but I can see my pins alot better without a peep because I have bad eyes. I am looking for any imput on who likes it and who doesn't and why.

RE: No Peep Users!
I've used one for a few years now, and I really like it for hunting, though I sometimes wonder why I still have it on my bow. After using it to check my form for a few months, it got so the bubble in the no-peep was always centered, and I quit looking at it. I find it most handy, if I make a change to my bow, to see that everything is back where I had it.

Takes a little while to get used to it, but it does work. I find the most significant difference in my vision is that I can see the target (deer, 3D target, etc.) better when not looking through a peep. With most peeps, I see the pin in low light, but not what's behind it, which is really the most important thing.

Yes, I use one and like it a lot. I tried to go back to a peep with the no-peep, but just don't like the peep anymore. This will be my third year with it. Just make sure you maintain a consistant grip and anchor, and everything should work fine.
It is a pain to set up first time, but what I would suggest doing is maintaing a tuning log and write down how you got it set up. For example, I had to turn the side screw -------, if I had to move my head to the ------, I had to adjust the bottom screw -----, if I had to raise my head to see centering ring.

I switched to one about 2 months ago and so far I really like it. Like others have said, I can see my pin well past legal time to shoot and now I hardly even have to look at it unless something just doesn't feel right.

Used one since 98' and any hunting bow of mine will always wear one.
I went back to a regular peep sight last season for the heck of it and was a paranoid nut worrying about last and first light shot opportunities.
Put it back on (newest version which is nicer) this spring and it's like an old friend.
A couple nights ago I stepped out the back door and shot 2 arrows from 25 yards, Robinhooded the first arrow dead center of the kill zone.
Gotta stop doing that.[:@]
I honestly think it's every bit as accurate as a small in string peep sight and none of the obstructed view.

I had one on my bow for a few monthes and never could shoot consistantly with it. I liked the veiw...I could see everything including my arrow (which I can not with a peep)....but in the end, I had to go back to the peep....
