I have 2 old compounds that have the original Vital Gear sights that bought new and chose the sights with all green pins I really like these sights ,, I don't want different color pins I'm used to all of them being green, and the smallest pin size.
what do you recommend, thanks T
i have the cheapest optoon and love it.. rock solid
I know as I have gotten older, 'pin color matters'
Green is now the brightest for me
MBG it is I'm headed there now,,,, thanks for the posts!
I have used all 3 green pins for maybe 20 years with zero misses do to all the same color. Actually zero misses on a deer.
I have a old Vital Bow Gear and never seen pins as bright as those since. You might consider sticking with yours.
Biology says men have a greater affinity to green and yellow fiber pins while women like red.
After many years though, I'm going to try something different. I ordered a Tommy Hogg 3 pin slider sight, and I ordered the gizmo to light the sights. I'd never used the light before, didn't even have it on my bow, until a recent hog hunt where I was sitting blinds, and it was VERY handy from a blind
We'll see if I like the new sight. Should get here Monday.
My practice routine is to ID range, draw, tell my self the distance, select pin, focus, pull through shot.
It's all about muscle memory and repetitiveness.
I call Black Gold and discussed a special order. They recommended to buy through a authorized dealer for a better deal.
You could buy a Black Gold sight used, send back to manufacture with note and they can change the pin colors. minor cost at most.
Anyone of them will make what you want.
as far as all the pins the same color, my previous compound a rival pro has the original Vital Gear with all green pins,,, never once did I pick the wrong pin.... however in the beginning I had a problem of hitting I think 2 feet to the right and 2' below what i was aiming at and thats from a treestand...... turns out I'm left eye dominant!!!! so when I aim in my sight picture I physically see 6 pins 3x3 side by side,, I need to pick the dimmest pins or the pins on the right or its a huge miss and huge is by feet not inches.
when I started and had a sight with different color pins, it was too confusing and just a pain in the butt and it looked like a christmas tree when aiming,,,,,, with pins all the same color I can think better and it makes me think more about the pins than what the deer is doing..
