Would you realistically hunt with a 100 yd pin...or even shoot 3D...other than some fun or a long distance 3D event ...the high majority of shots will be well in your sight pin range
A fixed pin sight can be played with where it only takes seconds to have a dead on 100 yd pin also...
My pins have an 80 yd on one bow...set up correctly most will have lots of room on the sight elevation rail to move entire sight down...mark normal setting where 20 30-40 50yd etc sits and adjust so furthest pin is dead on at 100 and mark that distance on elevation rail...so it can be simply set to 100 yard at ease...
A simple allan key is all thats need to make a two second adjustment...and is just an alternative to buying another large expensive sight for less than 1% of shots you will be ever [or maybe even should ever] be taking...

These are good points Neil. Other things in your sight can be used as reference (sight level, bottom of housing, change anchor or even install a second peep) or....you can learn how to "pin stack" which involves practice (but thats why we do this right?).
To Pin Stack, draw back to get a visual and place lower pin on target.....look where highest pin is on target (or off target
) Use that as a reference point and move lower pin to that exact location....or another pin depending on what you have determined to use due to your practice. Involves alot of practice but can be used to shoot long distances accurately.
If I was buying the Tek Hunter brand new I would personally try to find one with the dovetail style mount.
