    Yeah I do love my hind sight... but that replaces the peep sight not the sight...

    Actually I taught the guy at my pro shop how to shoot with the hind sight the other day. He now has one on his bow.

    Nope $175 for the one I am thinking about... hence asking if anyone has first hand knowledge on this one. From what I have been reading it sure sounds almost too good to be true....

    $175! Holy moly

    If I was going to by a sight for the much it would be a Spot Hogg Hoggit hands down. Has the best adjustments in the hunting sight market, easy to use, well built and machined, and just looks bad *. I believe you can get lense for them to, but you can get a lense for a lot of different hunting sights.

    like the spot hoggs too.. actually have just about the same type of adjustments. I have not seen any info on them having the Illuminator type lenses though. That is one of the main reasons I like the viper.... do the S/Hs have a similar lense?
