I just purchased a new bow to replace my 6 year old set up. What’s the best sights, rest, etc. I’m looking at a Spot Hogg Fast Eddie XL sight and a rip cord code red rest. How do you guys have your rigs set up?

Fast Eddie XL double pin sight
QAD HDX rest
Bee Stinger Micro Hex counter slide stabilizer

I can’t recommend a counterslide stabilizer enough is you are going to use a high end single pin. The adjustment wheel adds a decent amount of weight to the right side (RH shooter) of the bow and having the ability to adjust the weight on the left side of the bow made a big difference for me.

I love my spot hogg sights. I have a 5 pin Grinder on my Whitetail setup and a Double Pin Hogg Father on my big game rig.

Just switched to a ripcord code red rest on my whitetail bow, I really like it

My Elite 35 is set up with a CBE TEK single-pin sight and a Limb Driver micro elite rest. Regardless of what others use, it matters to what YOU feel most comfortable with. Some like multi-pin sights that do not move, others prefer adjustable sights to dial in known yardage.

I just ordered a 5 pin IQ sight. I'll report back after I run it for a little bit.

QAD HDX is great, but be careful if you're using the Easton FMJ's. I missed out on a nice buck last year because of the conditions. Cold + wet + friction made for a nice violin-esque sound when I drew back on him. He did not like it.

I have a sword twilight hunter 5 pin that I like a lot. I'm old school on rest, just throw a biscuit on it and call it good.

I ended up going with the HHA Optimizer Ultra sight with a ripcord ace rest. Got the sight zeroed in at 20 and 60 this afternoon them used the correct tape for my set up and it was dead on in between. I’m very pleased so far.
