Any of you old duffers (like me) out there that have to wear glasses with bi/tri-focal lenses and still are trying to shoot a bow?
Get rid of your bow string peep sight and try a Hind Sight system.
You really would be suprised how much it will improve your accurracy & especially consistency with your bow.
Both parts of system are mounted on the bow frame, so wrist torque is almost eliminated.
3 thumbs up for this product! May be other similiar products, but I'm not aware of them.

Think im going to give them a try.much better than peep site.

I will stick with the peep . The less adjustable stuff I have on my bow , the better . I use a peep and don't shoot with glasses (yet) . Maybe I will need these one day .

I do wear so thats why im going to try.Got plenty time for ajustments.Im not much for change but these may help me improve my shooting.

Hum looks interesting, but not for me. I do wear bi-focals, and I shoot right eyed which is not my master eye and my far weaker eye... But I shoot nice tight groups just fine . As long as I can see the pin and put it on the part of the deer I want it does not matter if the deer is clear.

If it came down to it I'd learn Kentucky windage .

I switched to contacts and have unifocal contacts.  One eye is set up for distance one for up close.  It is like my eyes were when I was 20.  I will never wear bifocals again. That being said my bow has a hindsight on it and I love it.

Look at the Squareup. I wear progressives and use the Squareup. After 30 minutes I almost had a robin hood.

Not promoting any product, whatever works for you - keep using it!!!
Don't you still need a peep sight with the Square-up sight?
That's what I was trying to get way from using while wearing tri-focals.
Was damned near impossible for me to focus on 3 things at different distances. Peep, pins & target....

Bubba - That's gotta be the wierdest thing I've heard of in a while. LOL
Never had an Optometrist suggest that........ Learn something new every day!
Had to be hard to adjust to wearing those contacts!??!

I actually use my peep with it but the manufacturer does say you can use it without the peep. My prob was torque. Not so much with my eyesight. Works for me...

Hind sight is my go to sight , just for that reason,  Bifocals.  It works well for me once you get it zeroed in its great, shows any torque you might be having.   Bifocals are a pian in my a$$!   jmo

I put a Twilight model of the hindsight on a compound two years ago to try to help me focus on the sights, I shoot instinctive and usually longbow or recurve.

several places I hunt I compound or crossbow would be better suited and I tried the Twilight Hindsight and fell in love with it.

I found in a couple places the peep sight, veen the magnum huge one, blacked out before shooting time ended. Its impossible to torque or cant the bow and not see it with this Hindsight. I love it.

it did take a bit to get used to but it works very well... They are actually doing cataract surgery now and doing it the same.  They implant one lens for distance and one for up close.  Ask about it next time you go.
