I am a rancher and outfitter in South Dakota. I am going to open up the home place for Bow hunters ONLY.I am going to offer the hunts on gunbroker as soon as I have the new pics.It will be for whitetail or mule deer. I would like to know of any forums that could help me get this info to the guys taht would be interestad. It would be great hunting for new bowhunters with out tons of time in the woods,all the hard work is done.It is also for guys on a budget.I have to many deer on this place.I am not trying to sell it here . I know it is late to book A hunt.But would like to know what Bowhunters think.Thanks for any help or info

    My eyes seem to be getting progressivly worse close up I am fine lond distance. I wear reading glasses.

    Here is my problem. I was shooting last night after work and when I look through my peep the three pins are so close that they are blury- fuzzy quite a bit. I can wear my glasses, but then the target down range would be blury. any one else dealing with this... Tough to get old. I'll tell ya.[:(]

    Usually happens to me also. I just have to use some restraint and not drink a 6 before I shoot.[:D]

    Have you ever tried a verifier? NOT a clarifier, but a verifier. They are on lancasters website. They are for hunting, and will or supposedly will clear up your pins for you.

    Try this link. Stick on bifocal lenses. I don't know if you could position them so that you could look at your sight pin then above the sticker to clearly see the target. BTW, how did you cook the gutter.

    Check out the specialty archery website. They have some pictures on there. I believe that the foci (is that the correct word?) of these lenses is so small that it doesn't screw anything up down range. Plus these were designed for far a sighted person like yourself.

    I haven't ever used one, nor do I have the need too, i have 15/20 vision. I do use a clarifier for spots and it makes things down range clearer with a scope. But a verifier is supposed to make your pins better without altering down range.

    It's like getting new eyes its awsome, never thought I would see my pins that clear again I would recomend it to any one. also 44 this year. I look at the pins with one eye closed. blury then look through my new peep with the lens nice and clear. Lancaster archery . got it in two days , However it was a little tricky to tie it in If you don't have your own press bring it to the bow shop.[;)]I got a #6 verifier. the only thing I'm getting use to it it's 1/8 peepa little smaller than I had.
