Archery sights
Hey guys so I have been shooting single pin adjustable for some time now but wanna switch over to multi pin. Just wondering what you all prefer for sights (brand and make) and how many pins do you use?

Montana Black Gold
I have a Black gold Ascent Verdict with 4 pins. So far I really like it! A lot of guys like the Spott Hogg or CBE as well. If you go with one of those I don't think you can go wrong.

I like my spothogg but have been eyeing up those option archery sights, they look to be the best of both worlds.

7 pin IQ sight. Horizontal pins (the only thing I initially didn't like), bright pins, IQ Retina Lock, slightly heavy, but my body fluctuates more in an 8 hour period than the sight weighs so not a concern.
I have in the past used a PSE single vertical pin slider in combination with a Timberline No-Peep (liked that, still have it and may go back to it). As well, a Trophy Ridge 5 vertical pin stationary in combination with a Timberline No-Peep (again, really liked the vertical pins). But whatever has resided on my bow(s) over the last 20 years, I've always had a No-Peep / IQ style of alignment device on my bow without a string peep. More than sufficient for hunting ranges, tells me when I'm torqueing the bow and allows for correction prior to the shot and most importantly indicates when strings are getting tired and needs replacing (happened on several occasions)
Although I like the IQ sight, I miss the vertical pin style of sights. Less clutter within the sight frame, better view of target/animal.

I have the Trophy Ridge React Pro. Was able to get a wicked deal at WSS at the time, so that was a factor. I'm really liking it so far, nice bright pins and the auto-calculated pins are cool, although the construction still feels a bit light to me.
It was either that or the Spott Hogg Hunter. That's a very nice one.

I have the same pin size configuration on my Ascent deficit slider! It has worked really well thus far.

I use my 50 yard pin as my slider and it has been virtually bang on as long as I do my part, out to 80 yards. I have room to get to 100, but haven't hit anything that far yet. Only targets that get set that far were at the camp hehoha shoot. I'd never take a shot at a live animal past 60, and it varies from year to year, depending on how much practice I've put in. This year, I'll feel comfortable out to 50
