Hey everyone. I will be coming up on my 3rd year bow hunting. There are a lot of things I need to work on. Biggest thing is just practicing but I also need to learn how to tune better. The point of this thread is to ask about bow sights. I am still using the 5 pin sight I purchased with the bow. I’ll be honest, I never adjusted the bottom 4 pins. I want to clean up my sight picture. What can you guys recommend for a novice that is both simple and user friendly to adjust? Thanks in advance.

I use a QC ranger. It’s a single pin that’s adjustable 20-70 but they don’t make it any more. The EZV seems like a cool idea but I’m a little skeptical.

Trying a Trophy Ridge React V5. I like that it has a sight picture similar to a single pin but I can shoot 20-60 without adjusting my sight.

I switched to the EZV last year and haven't looked back.

I have always used a pendulum sight. It is one pin that moves back and forth on its own depending on how you are tilting the bow. They have a max range of about 40 yards though, they are great for strictly treestand hunters. If I am on the ground I can lock it in place and shoot to around 25-30 without any major arrow drop. TruGlo makes one. I am converting to much heavier arrows this year so I am curious if it will effect my range with the pendulum.

I don't like having multiple pins, so I use a single pin slider. I have an HHA on my old bow that is a great sight but a bit bulky and heavy. I never had any problems with it with over ten years of use. I put a Montana black gold on my new bow, so far it's been awesome. I like it better than the HHA so far.
