Single Pin Recomendations

[monahmat]

Who is hunting with a single pin sight and what do you recommend?  I'd like to make the change but there are so many to chose from.  It will be for hunting and 3D mostly.

Black gold accent gets my vote. HHA is popular and Spot hog I hear good things about. Depends some like different wheel or sliders. Good luck with your search

I've been using single pin for quite a while now. HHA has been a good and durable sight for me.

HHA DS,also CBE makes a nice single pin

Is that covert an all metal/aluminum design?  Also, is the dot visible without the light turned on?  I'm sure it's visible but I mean in hunting scenario if your battery died.  I hadn't looked at that before but you've sparked my interest

I've also been looking at the HHA DS and the Spot Hogg Fast Eddie XL.  I like the dove tail on the Fast Eddie but the plastic gears make me nervous.

It's been a long time since I've seen a Sight Master. Always liked the way they had that index finger yardage adjustment.

That is the feature I love. being able to adjust at full draw is the feature i can't imagine a single pin not having.

i used a five pin spothog for years and changed to a single pin HHA last fall and took two bucks with I love it a little pricey but its worth it.

I'm not entirely sure if it's all metallic in nature but it sure seems sturdy to me, yes I can shoot without the illuminated dot turned on fairly simply due to the cross hair design. I always keep a spare battery in my hunting pack which can be swapped out in seconds if need be but with the 700 hour battery life I don't think you'll run into that problem, I plan on swapping mine out to a new battery at the start of each season anyhow. It doesn't have the "on the fly" yardage adjustment while at full draw which could be useful but I leave mine at 25 and I'm able to shoot 0-40 pretty simply so I've never seen that as a real hinderance to me either. The HHA optimizer sights are nice but way overpriced in my opinion.

I love my Impact Archery single pin..you can set it to be vertical or horizontal and it's very bright.

I switched to the HHA optimizer lite ultra this past fall. So far I love it. But i really dont have much time with it yet. Enough to set it up and a dozen or 2 arrows afterwards. 

Switched from a 5 pin.

All I've ever used since I began bow hunting 17 years ago. It hasn't changed and neither have I. About $60 - $75 depending on where you look. Works perfect! https://www.truglo.com/archery-sights/pendulum.asp
