Who is shooting with a Hind Sight, NO-Peep, or Anchor Sight?
If you are, What are your pros and cons?

I used just a kisser and no peep (not no-peep) for several years then when I got serious into 3D I went back to a peep. Being a trophy hunter if it's too dark to see through my peep it's too dark to tell if it's a trophy or not.

I purchased and setup the Anchor Sight this year. It is a good product. Easy initial setup, I did experience some difficulty in fine tuning (it took a while). After using it for one week I saw no advantage and went back to my G5 meta peep. Perhaps I did not give it long enough. Perhaps it just wasn't for me. I just never felt comfortable with it. It gave me one more thing to check than when I was using the peep. Supposedly, after extended use you will no longer need to check the Anchor Sight. But, you know you are going to if you draw on that trophy. OK, so you are looking at your pin which is on the "Big One", glance up or down for a second to check the Anchor Sight then back to the pin. I just did not feel comfortable with this scenario. This is just my opinion. A hunting friend swears by it. I think it all comes down to individual preference. Almost forgot, the Anchor Sight was also impacted by low light conditions.
Hope this is helpful.

I used the No-Peep when it first came out and it being a great tool, it didnt work for me. The problem wasnt with the No_peep but me, it distracted my focus as I kept looking back and forth at the no-peep and it doesnt take much to distract me. So I am back to a Meta peep and happy.....never used the other 2 thingamajigs.

No-Peep here.
String peeps let me down too often in the past. Especially when the light is coming from one side.
No-Peep works perfect for me.
Just the mounting bracket didn't fit my needs, so I machined my own.

I love my No-Peep or should I say Peeps. I have them on 3 different bows and absolutely love them for hunting. On my Constitution which is set up for field archery and has a scope and lense I had to go with a peep.

I use the no-peep on my bows and it works awesome--doesn't clutter up the sight picture and lets me hunt until the very end of legal hunting hours.After having one i don't know how i ever got by without it!:)

*smacks forhead*
how could i have forgot!
how about this
i'll agree with you on the issue at hand
hows that?
I've never shot a peep. Just can't get over the left eye dominance I guess. Only a kisser for me...it's worked so far.

I have just been shooting a couple yrs, took me about 1 week of shooting to figure out i would never use a peep again, so being new to sport i went peepless and will never look back. (no peep for me) hindsight is ok also.

At least 15years peepless, started using a no peep 6 years ago, only problem, I forget that its there half the time and 95% of the time when I am hunting.

I use a peep sight, and I use the no peep at the same time. I know it seems a little strange but here is why I do so. First of all I use a peep sight for this is all that I have ever used. However I use the NO PEEP for a simple traning device to keep me in perfect draw and anchor point. Plus it lets me know when I am in the stand if I am shooting at a deer if i AM DROPPING MY ARM OR BENDING AT THE WAIST

I tried a peep because everyone had one but never could see very good even thru the biggest one they made.Almost lost a big bull because of that thing.
Had the biggest bull of my life at 20 yds broadside and all I could see was hair thru the peep.I ended up subconsiously looking beside the peep so I could see what I was shooting at and hit the bull 2 feet left of where I was aiming.Fortunately I still got the bull but learned a valuable lesson. When its crunchtime you better be able to see what you're aiming at real good!
Took the peep off and I've never looked back.I honestly think I can shoot better,and just as accurate without the peep.(Even won some shoots without it)Some people can't.I'm not saying its for everyone but if you shoot a lot and have a very consistent anchor point......Get that thing off the string;)
Not to mention you'll shoot a little faster and one less thing to worry about.

I will be trying a no-peep this year
I've been shooting the No-Peep for quite some time and just last year mounted the Anchor Sight on my son's bow. The both have their pros and cons but I wouldn't be without one.

Dedicated Anchor Sight user for years now. I can say for myself it is the best item I have ever put on my bow, and every bow I own from this point on will have one on it.
A peep will never verify for you if you're anchor point is off, even by a fraction. Once the light fades the peep limits your vision, with a peep eliminator if you can see it you can shoot it.
I like the fact that at the moment of truth if I need verification that my anchor point is good, it's there. I shoot most often without even looking at it at this point, although I do check it every couple of shots.

Cooz, I had the same thing happen with an elk at 12 yds. saw nothing but hair, shot him to far back. Took my peep off 6 years ago and never looked back.
