I have a Matthews solo cam. The sight I have right now is a one pin. I don't like having to adjust for distance. I think I want a 3 pin since I won't be shooting over 30 yds. I am a lady and pull 52 lbs. I am short and my draw is only 24 inches. I have a trophy taker rest but want to change my sight. What do you recommend? thanks for all your help.

I like my Toxonics 5 pin sight right now. I have had it for a little more than a year and haven't had any problems with it. The pins are easy for me to adjust and I like how they protect the fiber optic. The pins are bright and I don't get any vibration noise from it.

I use to use the Spot-Hogg, but lately I have been using Sword sites, they are a top notch company with the best customer support around. I use the Apex 3rd Plane with the top two pins .019 and the bottom 3 .010's. Great site and you can custom order your pin sizes.

I like the Top Pin Trophy Taker sights, in the micro-adjust. I have the 7 pin model, and it's so easy to adjust and tough as nails.

I like multiple pin sights, tons of good ones out there. If you have a blind you are hunting from, take a target out there and make sure your pins are hitting where you think. Place some markers / stakes or something else in your shooting lanes so you can quickly find you range and get the correct pin.

Flat shooting bows you can get by with 1 pin as some people do, but I like to be precise with my arrows at all ranges. Never know when an animals will present a shot and a what yardage it will decide to be around.

I am shooting a Montana Black Gold Flashpoint and I love it. The photo dimming for the fibers are amazing.

there all good and bad you need to go look at em and choose 1 for yourself, had em all pretty much depends on YOU and what you want to use it for.Good luck!
PERSONALLY and it just my .02 cents I like ones with several micro adjust screws to reach pin point accuracy!

I got the same one for the reasons he said and I love the light. I've taken a few coons with it coming off the stand in low light.

The Montana Black Gold are awsome. The dimming factor is wonderful.
