well, it's time for me to find a sight. I like the spot hoggs, copper john dead nutz widow maker, sword twilight hunter, and axcel armourtech. I will not get the spot hogg, to dang expensive.
So which sight? I like the axcel, but is the extra weight worth it? I like the sword, because i've heard awesome tings about their customer service, and customizing of sights. I like the toughness of the copper john, so which one, but more imptly, WHY
thanks for all the help in advance

If you like the spot hogg then look at the sword sight. Same sight but half the price.

go to archery talk and buy a used spott hogg. Noting else can compare to them IMO. I won't shoot anything else. You can buy them well worth the money.

I am a member on archery talk. What kind of warranty and customer service does spot hogg have? Why is the spot hogg so good though. WHY

I have some magic beans if anyone is interested. No extra time hunting but they'll make you fart to the tune of Back In Black...

I like a single pin sight thats why I like the HHA. To many pins just divert my attention away from the target. I get in my stand and I know my feeder is 20 yds from it. I set the hha on 25 and i know I am good from 20 to 30 thats just my opinion.

Also my bow is pretty fast so the pins were stacked up if that makes any sense.

I had a Copper John sight. Rattled every time I shot the bow. Never could tighten up the screws enough to get it to stop. Sword is a good sight, I have never owned one but have some friends that shoot them. I just don't like the way the light is mounted on a bar over the fibers. I shoot all Spott Hogg Hoggit sightswith .010 pins and a wrap. the light and fiber are coompletely encased in the wrap for maximum visibility at night or low light conditions and for protecting the fibers. They are indestructable. Very few people are out in the field as much as I am with my bows and I have yet to have one mess up on me. I get the accuracy of a target sight with the features I want in a hunting sight. I won't shoot anything else.
