    Spot Hogg can't be beat, but is a close second.

    The HHa has never let me down. It's been abused stalking Miley's and antelope. Easy to sight in and very solid. Cannot compare it to other sliders as I have never felt any need to switch.

    The spot Hogg is incredibly rugged and solid. It has much more adjustment then the HHAs or any other movable sight. They are very accurate, because you can adjust then so finely, also the dial system is very smooth and precise, and you can take the only good parts of an HHA ( the rheostat housing and the tapes) and both are able to be applied son the spot hoggs

    HHA is awesome and you can get for a good price, But the Hogg fathers are bad ***. I want one but they are a lot of money. Built like a tank.

    Im getting a movable sight for 3D/hunting and im choosing the Spot Hogg Tommy Hogg in either a single or three pin. They are bulletproof, incredibly clean looking, and the operation is so fluid and smooth. I like the big wheel for easy turning. The pins are very bright. They are expensive but well worth it for such a quality bowsight that will last for many years

    I love my HHA. Simple to set up, simple to use, and quality design to me. Can't compare to others, because I haven't used or seen them.

    You won't regret it. I love my tommy Hogg so much. Way more adjustable than most other sights and built rock solid. I have a three pin head and a single up pin. I use the single pin for 3d and then put on the three pin head around may to get her dialed in for hunting

    i have a MBG with 6"inch dovetail on my Carbon spyder turbo, then an HHA on my Mathews z7x. The MBG is the best site ever used and I love the warranty. They really stand behind their product and have been very responsive with questions.

    Sorry i dont mean to jack this thread, i just had a question about the spot hogg sights as im looking into getting a tommy hog or hogg father. On the multiple pin sights - is just the bottom pin of the sight moveable or how does that work? For example if you have a 3 pin tommy hogg are 2 pins fixed and one a slider pin like on the MBG ascent?

    All of the pins on the MBG move as one.

    Shot from 105 yards with my Tommy Hogg three pin. Driven by my 70# Mathews MR5 with a 416 grain Easton Axis. 310 FPS +/-
    Shot from my knees with a loaded Badlands Clutch pack on that day then went home worn out.
