Need some help!
I am having a problem with my sight looking blurry when i shoot at my block. I am using a g5 peep the BIG one (due to my BAD EYE SIGHT lol) Oooo and i am weraing contact so do hate! But my problem is my 30 yard pin the one in the middle. When i use it the top and bottom pin almost get in the way. I am using cobra sidewinder sights (3pin). I dont know if it is because the pins are to bright or if i need to switch to a single pin sight. What do yall think??

Are you shooting in bright daylight? Sometimes sunshine can do that, although I've never had the problem indoors or in actual hunting conditions.

I think you're dealing with a common issue. What we gain with super bright fiber optic sights for shooting in the timber and in low light conditions we do lose when shooting in bright sunshine. I'm not sure of the answer, other than finding which pin colors you can see best in the bright light and use those.

Jack doesnt have this problem since his 30 and 40 yard pins are an INCH apart.

I was waiting for that one.
I like my pin gaps thank you very much. 5 pins get me out to 60 yards and are very user friendly.
(granted, with my molasses fast Mathews I actually have to mount two sights on my bow to have enough room to get out past 30 yards)

Re: Need some help!
it is more likely your contact drying out because you are straining to focus...
try shooting with both eyes open instead, that's what i do...i wear contacts too, had the same issues as you were having...

Or you could take some electrical tape to cover up that fiber barrel and dull down your pins a bit to see if that's the culprit.
