I started using a tru-glo 3 pin. It's been great. Easy to adjust and very bright in low light.

Ditto.... That's what I use. Mine is flipped upside-down/backwards so it mounts lefty. Great sight.... Simple.... Easy to use.... [8D]

you have to move the whole sight. i had a similar problem. there are adjustments on the side of the sight as well so you can move the whole sight window down or up. if you work with it or take it to a pro shop, you will figure out how to work it fine!

Yea I finally figured it out. I had to unscrew part of it and manually move the ring down a couple of screw holes, then raise the pins back to center and start over. I've definately learned alot about these sights by not having and documentation yet. In the previous position I had the pins down as far as they would go, and still shooting a few inches below the bullseye, now I have more room to play with.

One of the pins on my tru-glo is a trenium. I didn't think it would make a difference. But as soon as I put it on I could tell. I would suggest getting all 3 pin's trenium. Once you see the difference you'll want it anyways. Also, I'm using the tru-glow peep sight. It has 4 brights around the peep so you have no problem finding the peep in the evening. They can be adjusted 3 levels (Bright, Moderate, Off) depending on what time of day your hunting.
Modern technology is so kick ass!
Too bad they havent designed a device to teach me how to spell.

I just got back from bass pro and held up 8 or so different sights, and was surprised how bright the Tru Glo, Glo Bright sight was. And at $59.99, it was a fair price too. Not everyone worrys about brightness but since i hunt swamps, the brightness helps. I was really impressed with this sight and will likely get it to go w/ my WB when the Q2 arrives this week. The only sight that seemed comparable in brightness was the HHA Sports sight, but it was $90.
