I don't know the heck it is with me and sights, but I'm cursed  A week ago, I purchased a Spot Hogg 7 deadly pin sight based on my positive, previous experience with Spot Hogg. BT took one look at the sight and so tactifully stated his first impression of the sight. "What a piece of s**t! " ;D Prophecy fufilled. Half the jam screws came stripped out of the box. The bottom pin (which is my 50yd), will not tighten down enough to eliminate play and the others I certainly don't trust anymore  So lets discuss sights that don't suck  Sights I have used that I did not have any problems were the Spot Hogg Right On, Copper John Deadnuts, and Montana BlackGold Flashpoint ( yes, Kris, you may tell me "I told you so" now  ). |

Get an HHA. Best sight on the market, and amazing customer service. Single pin is the way to go. JMHO.....  |

Built like a tank, simplicity both in design and at the time of the shot. I usually leave mine set at 20 yards...that puts me dead on at my average range of 25 to 28 yards (from a 18 foot elevation). Easy to adjust to different ranges if the opportunity arrises. The supplied yardage tapes were dead on. |

I have the Black and gold 7 pin which is just awesome That gives me pins to 100yds. i don't see myself using another sight ever again.
you could also look into their slider, maybe a 3 or 4 pin deal, then with only moving the slider once you will have 6-8 different settings

I went with the HHA OL-5519 sight and I'm absolutely thrilled with the purchase. It takes a little while to get sighted in, but once it is .... it's spot on!

I found mine easy to sight in...shoot groups at 20 then at 60, subtract the numbers and you get the perfect yardage tape. I shot my first robin hood at 26 yards after sighting in.  |

You like picking on that one particular dot, don't you?  |

I guess I went at it differently. I started at 20 yards, and went back to the maximum flat flight I had. Each and every yard I went back I made a notation for. I guess that's why it took me as long as it did.  |
