Love my spot Hogg sights. I had a custom 7 pin Hogg-it but will be using a single pin Hogg Father this year.

i went through a few sights before settlin down on the hogg it with .19 pins.
had an ascent n it was a great sight.but more than i needed for hunting,n it rattled.
the hogg it is tuff as nails.is a breeze to set up.
i think i will get a head with .29 pins for hunting out of my blind next year

No sights I hunt mostly with a long bow.  That said I do have a shiny new Alpine Verdict for those hunts were my stick bow is a serious disadvantage.  For the sight I chose the spot tommy hogg.  Why some top rate archers recommended it.  In fact it just arrived today and now I am trying to figure out how it works :chuckle:

Black Gold Rush. Lifetime unconditional warrantee and 5 really bright pins.

Totally agree!!  I run the flash point super 7 by black gold.  Always shining bright, durable, life time warranty, and awesome customer service.   :tup:

Once again there are many good sights out there. My preference after using many is the Black Gold Ascent 3 pin mover sight. I think it is the perfect hunting sight. THe top two pins are .019 at 20 and 30 yards and the 40 yard pin is an .010.  So for hunting Elk in the rut I would not plan on moving the sight. But then if I am hunting Mule deer at longer distances I can dial up that 3rd pin all the way out to 100 yards if I want to.

Works great for me.

Trophy Ridge Hit Man 7 - Micro. Good protection in  the ring for hunting heavy brush. Have yet to have any fibers break like i have with 2 other  Spott Hogg's.

I put an HHA Optimizer Ultra on my bow last year. It has the dial vs the vertical adjustment on the regular Optimizer.It's a single pin. Multiple pins are great, but I've had viability issues with multiple pins and I always have to guess when shooting in between pins anyway. The HHA is adjustable by 1 yard increments and I have it dialed in to deadly accurate at 70 yards (in a controlled environment). I would never shoot at game from that distance, but with this single pin from 40-50 yards in the field, I'll never go back to multi-pin.

:yeah:
In 14 or so years, after falling on in on the ice several times, after dragging it through brush so that a snake has to suck in it's belly, after dropping it 6 feet while coming out of my treestand, I have never had to make an adjustment or re-sight it in.  I can leave my bow in the barn all winter long and the first shot I take of the year, no matter what distance, my Spot Hogg is dead on!  I had a 7-DP but thought it was overkill and sold it.   I can't see myself buying a different brand.  I did have a trophy Ridge in line pin site on a back up bow, shot it a couple of times and hated it so much that I sold it on e-bay.  Yep, only Spot Hogg for this guy.
