Bow sighting gadget ???

[Darrell Davis]

Hope someone can help me with this one.

Due to a weak shoulder I have been out of bow hunting for a number of years, but am trying to pass on some info to a son-in-law about a great sighting aid I used on my last bow.

Not to upset anyone, but I personally do not like the bow string peep, so instead I installed a sighting aid on the riser and right next to the sights, a small attachment that did away with the need of the string peep.

When your head/eye was in the correct position, there was a circle with a centered dot, one or both lighted just like the fiber optic pin sights.

Being very close to the sights, with the proper head/eye position, a very slight shift of the eye put you on the pins for the shot.

Because there was no hole in a string peep to line up, this was very VERY quick with nothing between your eye and the sight pins.

I can't seem to find this item on the net, but probably ordered it from Cabela's the 10 - 15 or so years back when I was still using a bow.

Hope someone can pass on some info on this thing!

Keep em coming!

There are a couple of products out there to help eliminate the peep sight. I think the one you are describing is the "No Peep". Unfortunately it does not seem to be made anymore.

There is the Hind Sight. I tryed one of these last year, and it worked ok once I got it tuned. The only draw back I can think of is it takes much longer to get on target with this sight.

Then there is one more that I found called the Peep Eliminator.

I know it is awful close to season to be changing things now, but I hope this helps.

Thanks, and likely you are correct in the product no longer being made.

I think I bought it from Cabela's, but it didn't show up in my searching.

Thanks again.

Keep em coming!
