[QUOTE="Scot E, post: 728323, member: 10832"] New archery gear is always a blast! Well, I think you may end up liking that Black gold sight more the the spot hogg. they are really nice sights IMO. I have a black gold 7 pin without the whell which gets me to about 75 yards, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 70, 75. From there I will use a bracketing technique to get me further. If you haven't heard of the anchor site I would encourage you to spend some time looking at. It is a replacement for your peep and will make you a more accurate shooter at the distances you are shooting. The precision required compared to that of a peep is hardly even comparable. Plus the days of loosing light because of your peep is gone. The speed loss because of a peep on your string is gone. You can also bracket with your anchor sight which gets you even further down range. It is a fantastic setup. The only other thing I would have you consider is arrow weight. Most guys try to go light when they shoot long distance but past about 50-60 yards a heavier arrow will shoot flatter. Very similar concept to the LRH hunting game with heavy bullets. I have done multiple tests and have yet to find a light weight arrow that outperforms a heavier one at the kind of distances you are talking. I would also be pretty close to a neutral FOC with a good twist or offset on the fletching to keep the arrow stable. Have fun! Scot E. [/QUOTE]
