    I am a 50-year old coming back to bowhunting after a 25-year break. Lots of great stuff from the old days of the re-curve and open sights. Anyone with experience on sight/peep recommendations for someone who is far-sighted? Better to shoot with contacts or glasses? Standard glasses or progressives? Thanks for the feedback.

    Got that problem also at the big 50.I shoot using a hindsight eclipse which I really like a lot.It puts the entire sight aperture out in front,eliminating the peep sight.Another similar sight is a sight made by Tactical Archery supply,you may want to check those out.Hope that helps.
