Default question about peep sights
What are the types of peeps you guys use? ( ralph, vicki and the posse?) I have a vulcan and never have shot a bow that short. Just wondering. It looked like ralph shoots a small or no peep? thanks

I looked at the string splitter.. Not sure yet. I'll let everyone else test it for me.

I'm kinda a speed freak so I don't like all that added weight on my string. Not to mention the increased flat surface area added to your string concerns me about noise.

I know I'm being picky but hey the devil is in the details.

I shot the G5 Meta peep Hunter ( 3/16 inch) it weighs 4.5 grains.

I think the string splitter is 20+ grains

I'm using an Eastman 1/4" peep. I'd like a Meta peep if they come in 1/4". I need them bigger for night hunting (hogs).

Meta Peep

• Buyer's Guide
These ultralightweight magnesium alloy peeps weigh less than half of what their competitors weigh, and even the slightest weight reduction on your string can increase your arrow speed. What's more, the internal hourglass shape helps to ensure consistent and proper alignment for any length of draw.
Sizes:
3/16", 4.5 grains
1/4", 6 grains
5/16", 7 grains

So, what are the advantages over a "regular" peep?
