I’ve used 0.029 pins early on. I switched to the 0.019 pins at some point and haven’t really missed the larger pins. Personally, I don’t have any need for anything smaller than the 0.019.
I’ve used them and love them. The only con is the weight. The ones I use are very tough, don’t affect arrow flight, and I’ve never had a failure. They have helped in tracking very few times. 99.9% of the time I have pass throughs, so they can’t help then.
I’ve been using HHA sights for years and love them. I’m currently using the Tetra Max single pin with the 0.019 pin. Works perfect for me.
Good luck with your search.
For my deer setup, I use my 60 lbs mods. With that setup, I can shoot to 40 yds with my single pin set at 30 yds without holding off the deer.
I’m not crazy about SH sights, but a single pin sounds like it would be all you need.
Felt overly heavy for what it is, didn’t have a rheostat, and the pins weren’t as bright as I want. I was always a 3 pin guy before switching to a single pin. I thought it would be a good combo sight, but it wasn’t for me. In the end, a single pin was the best option and that’s what I’ll be...
I use the primer pen and gorilla super glue. Never had an issue with them not sticking. I don’t like the inconvenience of the primer pen, so I’m gonna stay with Blazers or Q2i vanes.
If your setup allows you to shoot 0-40, then I would think you should be able to get to 50 yards while still holding on a whitetail sized target. I use a single pin, as well, and keep mine set at 30 yards. That gets me from 0-40 and never have to hold off a deer. Anything over that, I’m gonna...
