I like my Axcel Amourtech sights. I have one in five and one in seven pin set ups. You can get them with as small as the .010 pins but I'm shooting the .019. Very bright but also has a port to screw in a pin light should you choose to.


I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

I like the Spot Hogg hunter, bright and can add pin light if needed

Unless you are a competitive target shooter, why would a bowhunter need seven pins on their sight? I have four and that is one more than I realistically need.

20 30 40 45 50 55 60.. or some combo of that. Spot and stalk type hunting might call for longer shots. Guess it depends on how far you are comfortable and cwn make an ethical kill shot.

I have 5 and have found use for all. It's the your ability to use those three other pins (or six other pins) that determines their use and not the fact that they're there.

I have a TRUGLO Carbon something. Has .29 and .019 and .010 pins for longer distances. Bright and micro adjust. And cheap

When I dropped back in draw weight the gap in my pins opened up I prefer the 7 pin for that reason. So I have less gap guessing at ranges in between the 5s and 10s.

I use a 5 pin tru-glo as well but mine is .019 for the top 3 and .010 for the bottom 2. 20, 30, 40, 45 and 50

Trophy Ridge React is cool if you change arrows fairly often or do not like setting pins, set the top one at 20 then adjust pins all at once and get the 50 or 60 dead on with the one knob adjustment and the others are spaced out in 10 yard increments and there are 5 and 7 pin versions with good fibers that are bright to the pins.
