Peeps

Hi all

Looking into buying a new peep sight for both my bows. A lot of people have said nice things about the Super Ball Peep with a clarifer lens, especially for field archery.

Has anyone used one (or any lens assisted peep) and what ye think?

Also, there is an option to get it with a 37 deg and a 45 deg angle, whats the reasoning behind this and is there a rule of thumb as to which one you should get?

Many thanks!

Don't bother with a clarifier peep. OK indoors, but one drop of water (rain) in the peep and you're stuffed.

super peeps great, my understanding of the different angles is on a short axis bow the angle of string at postion of peep will be different to a longer axel to axel bow, to make sure when you are at full draw get sombody ( without put ing their arm or hands inside the bow) to put some paper along the arrow and trace the angle of the cable, then mesure the angle and see which one is best for your bows

I like my super ball peep, means I can change the size of the hole when and if I want. Even use a clarifier, and if the days looks like it might rain, then just change the peep insert for same size without the lens.

Heres a link for working out the peep angle

If you are going to invest twenty or so quid on a super peep make sure you check the tracks for sharp edges as they can go through your string in a very short time.600 grit wet and dry works well.
Saying this he new ones seem much better.
