Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Archery Sight Question

I'm in the process if building a new setup for this coming season. For the past 12 years I have used the Spot Hogg 7 pin fixed. (Western game hunter) I like the quick ability to shoot out to farther distances for follow up shots, etc, but have realized the need for more precision if I have the time pre-shot to dial a slider. I have narrowed down my choices to either a Montana Black Gold or an Option Archery sight. I really like the black Gold pin brightness, but also really like the ability to open the housing on an Option sight and declutter the sight picture.

I have not recently handled an Option sight and am wondering how bright their pins are in comparison to a black Gold? Any thoughts?

I think a look at Spot Hogg, CBE, or HHA single pin sights would be worth your time, you have options of single pin or double pin that are dialed to yardage. Also can pick the pin size be it .019 0r .010 fiber optic, and both are known to be very bright and adjustable rheostat fir bright conditions. I shoot out to 70 yards with 3 of my bows, but speed and scope diameter will dictate maximum achievable distance.

You can find great deals on used sights at Archery Talk.com, in right or left hand versions

I'm afraid I don't have any experience with Option Archery, and Black Gold sights tend to be bulky and old school.

Edit: Just looked at the Option Archery offerings, over priced in my opinion other than Dan Evans designed.
