After 20 years of being stubborn, I made it to the eye dr and was diagnosed with farsightedness. I know have glasses and it's freaking amazing what I can see LOL... Anyway, my old bow was rigged up with your standard trophy ridge fixed pin sight and when shooting with my glasses on, the pins were blurry but I could see the target extremely well. I'm in the market for new sights and saw the Axcel Armortech vision hd sight which has a longer arm on it to extend the sight out farther from the bow. So my main question is will this help eliminate the blurriness of my pins? If not, what do you recommend??

I won look at getting a lens in your peep. It will help more.

yup, get a peep clarifier, there are different ones so knowing which is best for you can be a little pain. CCR usually has several to pick from that you can try


lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Guess I'm do for a over due trip to a legit bowshop lol. I found a local shop that carries these products so I'll be checking them out!

People act surprised when I tell them I don't use a peep. I learned to shoot a recurve at a very young age and my 1st compound didn't have one either and I could shoot with the best of them. I guess since I was taught to shoot with a anchor point, the peep was just extra crap to deal with. I eventually put one on years down the road and used it for a year or so then just took it off. Seeing my buddies panic mode set in when they go to shoot my bow for the 1st time and realizing there isn't a peep is PRICELESS!

I used one for a while. Only problem I found was it will fog in cold weather.
