    I'm currently using a Viper MicroTune, but I just found out my Viper QuickSet just came in the mail today. I'm excited to go back to a single/vertical pin sight.

    I own 4 Viper Archery Product sights, 2 MicroTune and 2 Pro 2000's.

    I'm picking up a Octane with the extension bar as soon as it's available. :cool:

    Tru Glo 5 pin Micro Tool Less. I like the sight very much, however, I have to put it almost as low as it will go. There should be more vertical adjustment in my opinion. My next bow will have a Tommy Hogg on it. Lots of vertical adjustment.

    I have a RT 900 by Extreme and dont really care for it, because the fibers are exposed and tend to get broke!:mad: My buddy has a Apex and that thing is sweet....Tru Glow is a very nice sight for the money too:)

    I'm still using a Spot Hogg Hunter Hogg-It. I have the large pin guard, with a .029 on top, and .019's for the rest. I had custom colors put in mine, they alternate green/orange. I also have the wrap on mine.

    With that said, I'd like to and plan on trying both the Octane NXS, and the Axcel Armortech.

    I am looking at the Octane NXS right now. I just need to go and look at cables and bass pro at all of the scopes. That could take a while. :D
