I bought an APA Viper V7 this year and shot my mulie with it. Its a great bow, I have 3 or 4 friends with them and they all say the same. I personally use a cobra sight but I have also heard good things about spot hog.

Default hogg

I have the spot hogg on my Mathews and like it. It shows up in early and late light and is easy to adjust.

I have the hogg it hunter 5 pin as well. Great sight. After running all the junk talked up about being the best and destroying them all within 2 years each in heavy duty spot and stalk application, its nice to have a sight that is built for the job. This baby is gonna see some heavy duty pounding and will/has taken it so far like a walk in the park.

Spott hogg wrapped real deal 5 pin sitting on my bow and I love it. Moving individual pins takes a little getting used to. But once you get the hang of that it's a breeze.
Upgraded from a cobra sidewinder, which I didn't love.....

Got an APA bow myself and it shoots smooth as silk. Stays very accurate and stable. It's a longer bow so it is more forgiving than a shorter one too. I wouldn't go back to another manufacturer now.

been using a hoggit hunter for the last 4 or so years. Real good quality, very durable and nothing ever moves "mysteriously". Both my rigs wear 5 pin wrapped hunter hoggits.

I have a Mamba 7.5 with a Spot Hogg Real Deal sight on it. It is a good bow, accurate and forgiving but I found it noisy. I have tried a lot of things to quieten it with no luck. The Spot Hogg sight is great and I have had it on two different bows so far with no problems.

I also have a Hoyt CRX 32 and that would be my recommendation. But as everyone knows, you have to try as many different bows as possible and during that time, you will find the one that is right for you.
