RE: Who' s the expert in low light conditions
brad, I got the same problem and havn' t found the solution after 35 years of bowhunting. I' m thinking about trying the no-peep, however. I' m right handed and left eye dominant and someone on hear said that woud be a problem with no-peep.

I started using a large diameter peep and an Impact Cosmic sight. It is the best combo I have found. Having no peep sight would be better , but I just don' t shoot as well without one.

RE: Who' s the expert in low light conditions
Personally I have opened my peep and found it helps but whenlight is real dim I shoot down the shaft , much like uncle Ted. I learned to shoot this way originally aand have found that if it' s too dark to shoot like this then it' s just too dark!!It doesn' t work for all but with some consistent practice is an option. I usually shoot 8-10 shots at the end of a session this way to stay in practice. Out to 25 yds. I,m fairly decent and can hit a small paper plate. Not a given but hope it helps!!

The no peep is very good in low light - For me the accuracy was also not as good as with a peep. I drill out all my peeps and like them close to 1/4" dia., it helps.
I have been shooting with both the no-peep and peep now for about 7 months, and I am undicided as to how I will hunt this year.
Shooting at white deer also helps a whole bunch[8D]

Brad,
Unfortunately,the big brusiers move in the last 10 mins before dark,but which ever setup you choose-If you can' t pick the spot out clearly,LET HIM WALK!!!!
You' ll only regret a wounded one that much more.

This is my first season with the No Peep so I don' t know how it will work hunting but it is working GREAT on targets and I outshot one of my partners on the 3-Dcourse a while back . . . I always shot well below his score.
If the opportunities present though, I am confident that I will be very well pleased with the results.
I dumped my peep though and do not regret it. I gained 2 fps in speed.[8D]
