I am not a fan of 1 pin sights, personally



When I ready to shoot a deer, the last thing I want to do it mess with my sight

G5 Optix. Has set pins, as well as a "floating pin" that can be dialed for longer distances

Single pin sights all the way...have been shooting with one for a couple seasons now and I wish I would have went to one sooner. The sight picture is so much cleaner.

Its has its +'s and -'s like anything else but to me the +'s out weight what little negatives there might be with your perticular set up.

I use a Trophy Ridge React Sight. I really like the sight, you just have to sight in two pins and al 5 pins are on target. Works really well.

I have that exact sight on one of my bows. I swapped to single pin sights last summer, and haven't looked back since switching. To me, the HHA pin is brighter than the Black Gold single pin I have on another bow. You can probably find one used on ArcheryTalk classifieds for $100 shipped.

Did not read thread. I have a HHA optimizer and I'll never shoot another sight.

eta: It's not for everyone. It also takes some shooting to get used to. When I hunt, I shoot mine out to 25 yards or so without adjusting it. I've only moved the wheel once during a hunt, and the deer was at like 33 yards. I like the single pin because it lets you pay much more attention to your equipment and your arrow flight.
