    Do any of you use Magnification lenses on your bow sights. I am running HHA single pin adjustable and just tried a 2x lens and took it back and ordered a 4x lens. I am hoping this will make me even more accurate. I am not looking to extend my range with it, just make more accurate at my current range which is out to 45 yards where I hunt. There is no longer shot in my woods, it is to thick. If you have used this tell me what you thought about it.

    I bought one a while back, 2X, and I absolutely love it. " Don't know how I lived without it". But seriously, it's probably one of the best things you could add to your bow. And I personally like the 2X, just enough to help but not enough to interfere.

    I put the 4x on and I really like it. I am looking forward to trying it in the field now.

    Illegal here for archery hunts. I use one for spot and 3d shooting but there are too many times shooting 3d that the lighting is bad or the lens fogs or rain clutters it or there's not enough light or too much glare. I'd never take one hunting.
