    I have a 5 pin fuse and I love it. But I've heard Trophy Ridge,HHA and Hogg are great sights also. But for me just starting out in bow hunting and on somewhat of a budget my 5 pin Fuse (payed around $100) is making just as good of groups as anyone's $200+ sights and there really easy to adjust for sighting in.

    I have the Helex micro. I had to look up exactly which one I had.

    Sword sights are built like a tank. I have the sabre and it's a awesome sight for what it is and how much it cost.

    How much money do you want to spend?
    Lots of great sights and lots of options. You really need to get out and look at them.
    I have 5 different sights on bows currently.
    Right now my go to hunting bow is wearing a 5 pin, .019 AXT titanium sight.
    Is it the best sight that I have?

    I only know that it is the one that I am seeing and shooting the best right now.

    I have a five pin IQ, I have no complaints with it.

    As stated, depends on what you want to spend and type of sight you're wanting. That said, Black Gold makes excellent sights. I have one on each of my 3 bows.

    I love my new truglo Range Rover pro. Had sword before this one and loved it but decided to make a chance and am very happy with my decision. I got mine for $160 on Amazon. Don't spend $200 or more on it.

    I'm using a 5 pin Trophy Ridge React sight. Pretty easy to sight in and so far haven't had any problems. A lot of guys shoot a single pin sight too. It just depends on your hunting area and how comfortable you might be gauging the intermediate distances with only one pin. You may not always have the time to adjust to the perfect range. So far I've been more comfortable taking the sight adjustment step out of the equation when getting ready to shoot.

    I agree with Hillbilly. I shoot with a Trophy Ridge React 5 pin and love it. Super easy to dial in and the pins are super bright.

    Well went to cabelas to buy an IQ sight and walked out with the trophy Ridge React. The guy talked me into it. I'm sure the IQ is a good sight but it sounds like too much work to line everything up plus work a camera at the same time
