    Hello everyone,
    I got a peep that has my string into 3 section, I hate it!!!! Looking to replace it. Has anyone ever gotten a glow in the dark peep. If so, how do you like it? I do not like the peeps that have the tube to the cables.

    I have the same style of peep. The 3 strand. What do you hate about it?

    I have four different sized peeps in my tackle box. I finally settled on one that let's me see a perfect circle of my sight ring guard. Maybe be you are shooting too small of a peep? the little ones are great for target shooting, but lousy in low light conditions. Regarding glow in the dark peeps, the problem is locating the critter in low light, not finding your peep.

    glow in the dark peeps do not make it easier to see but almost worst in my opinion

    The problem is that the third strand is constantly getting in the way and that I constantly have to adjust it every so often. I know the latter part is due to the serving not being tight but the third string part is really a problem

    If you have a quality string, your pro shop should be able to train the peep to the proper position.

    I had a three strand sight and I hated it too. I kept getting one of the strands right in the middle of my line of sight. I guess I could of had it served by a shop but I got a new one instead. I tried a two stand one but had a hard time getting it to align just as I needed it to. So I replaced it again with one that has a tube connected. I love it- don't have to worry about it aligning just right and my groups are tighter because of the consistency it offers in alignment. I'm not saying its right for you or anyone else to get one with a tube but it works great for me. I was against the tube connected peeps until I tried it.

    Unless anyone has really good things to say about a glow in the dark peep, I would stay away from that. I would think that would make it harder for you to see your pins in low light due to a light source being inches from your eye. I have no experience with such a product so do not quote me on that.
