    what would a good sight be to put on my bow? I would like it to be under 100 since, that's what I paid for the bow? Thanks

    I was looking at the G5 LE, and I was wondering are they any good? Is the Viper predator HTR a good sight? One more question, I you purchase from the shopping section, does the forum get the money, or does it go to another company? Thanks

    I know it sounds crazy but...try not to cheap out on your sights. Cheap-o's give everlasting grief. Besides, when you decide to spring for that top-of-line, whiz bang arrow chunker, you will already have a great sight to install.

    Konrad is right. you'll probably wanna upgrade you're bow sooner than you think and it will be that much easier when you don't have to spend a fortune on accessories. G5's are great sights but I think they're a bit over priced. also think about the HHA single pin adjustable sights. I have several friends that shoot it and they all love it.

    how are the single pins for change in yardage? Do I just move the pin to where I want to shoot, or how do they work. I have always used a multi-pin sight. Thanks

    Well something can be overpriced and still good. :) I have the sight and love it, but I think they have it priced too high. There are a few cons to the sight though. The magnetic hood doesn't stay on (with my bow anyway) when shot. The fibers are also a little more exposed then I care for them to be. The pros are the fibers are bright, it is a very well constructed sight, with a lot of micro-adjustments.. I put a canvas sight cover over mine to protect the fibers.

    I may buy from the forum, if they get the money.
