Default String Splitter
Who is shooting it? And how do you like it?

I'm not sure I trust it, honestly. Cheri's peep is sliding like it stole 2nd base and the string wraps all the way around hers. That thing looks cool, but I'm a bit nervous about it.

Maybe it's just me, but it sure seems like a lot of unsupported weight on the exposed "Y" part. Hope that makes sense... this has been a "Monday-Type Tuesday" and I'm a bit loopy.

I'm thinking about giving it a try, my night vision is terrible. I'm a welder so I think the bright light has caught up with me? Maybe it would help in low light?

Doesn't it effect accuracy by giving you too much room to align your pin in the rear sight window (the peep / string splitter)?

It looks weird to me...but that's not saying much. lol

I don't think I could shoot it. I need to align my peep with the sight housing to be more accurate.

I'm with Monie. It is too alien for me to get my brain around. I don't have a bad time with a 1/4" peep sight with lighting. And I do the same as Monie with the outer ring of my housing of my forward sight fairly easily.

Well I suppose you could align the top of the housing with the top of the arch and still be ok.

You go right ahead. I'll stick with my peep.
