    HHA is the best for around 100. If you want to spend more MBG, CBE, and spot Hogg are some of the best.

    How much do you plan to spend? Do you want a slider? Do want single pin, multiple pin, etc. ? That would make giving recommendations easier.

    I have a MBG Ascent 3 pin slider (not a fan of single pin sights) that I love but it was right around $200 after customizing it.

    But there are a LOT of good sights out there depending on what style you want and how much you want to spend.

    Congrats on the Drive. My good friend has one and he loves it.

    Coop, looking to spend $150. I would like multiple pins. I'm new to bowhunting and looking for a good sight.

    Sounds like out of your price range but I'd go with the HHA OPTIMIZER LITE KING PIN!!! Disappointed this wasn't an option when I bought the OPTIMIZER LITE earlier this year. Guess it will be going on my back up bow!

    I have a Trophy Ridge REACT sight too and like it. However I think the BEST sight I ever had was the Axcel I let go with my old bow.

    I'm a Spot Hogg guy, been using the one I have now for 10 years and just upgraded the pins with their kit. Will most likely get another 10 years out of it or more. Bottom line is that they're the most rugged, well built sights out there. Mine still works like the day I bought it.

    Regardless of what you buy, make sure there is no plastic on it. All metal construction only.

    I had the Axcel armotech, great sight! I think I like the react so much because I fear losing arrows during the sighting in process. (Easton FMJ's)

    If you like single pin I use a stationary Impact Archery Solo. Very bright!

    If you want a multi pin, the spott hog is a good one, but so is the trophy ridge react 5 pin. I have a react and like it but i converted to a single pin and i will never go back! I would highly recommend the HHA optimizer lite! Multi pin doesnt even compare to a single. Dont take my word for it, try one out yourself! You wont be disappointed.

    Spot Hogg Hunter is a solid multi pin sight, I really like mine and just picked up a wrapped version. I traded an axcel armortech for it, I prefer the simplicity of the Hogg-it Hunter.
