Shoot a peep and if it turns on you just shoot the bull anyway. I did and it was a 5x7.

Never had a tube break as long as it was replaced with a new one the week before season. Never had one pull off while hunting.  Never had a peep that I couldn't see thru as long as  tube was attached.  Have had a un-tubed peep not line up at the moment of truth (300 class 5x5) despite lining up every time for 500+ shots prior, I will never, ever not have a tube attached to my peep.  25+ years of hunting and despite my use of custom strings exclusively, you will never see my bow without a tube attached to the peep.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

I got rid of the noisy tubing, don't use a D-loop to keep my string from twisting, and went with a "no-peep" alignment aid.  I love it, I draw, reference the no peep, then take the shot.  It was a bit hard to get it set up but I really like it as I can draw, line up my sights and then take a quick glance to make sure I am in correct position.  I left my peep in while setting up the no-peep so I could get it set close to where I was normally shooting.

Although I understand the purpose a peep serves, I've never had a bow setup with any type of peep on it. Seems like the thing to do though.


May the morning silence be broken with the wisp of vanes trailing blades to their mark.
