Dealers choice! What should our next video be? Seems like it has been too long since we've shot 3D and made a vid... - TC
Anything where mfjj doesn’t say “heighth” is ok
That bigfoot Target is siiiiiiick!
Why to use a single pin over multi pin?
@@mattiecreates Personal preference. I use a three-pin slider for hunting and a single pin for target.
This was a huge wealth of knowledge for me. I am new to archery/bow hunting and recently found out what the sight picture should really look like when looking through the peep. Mine wasn't way off but it is too small. Needless to say I am now looking for a new peep and I think the Insight is the one I want to go with. Thanks for the sharing the wisdom Dan and MFJJ! Getting ready for my spot and stalk Idaho Spring Black Bear hunt, hoping it happens with the bow.
The quick mention about how the riser partially obstructs the view while lining up your peep around your sight housing answered that one question I could never get answered so thanks guys
This video was awesome thanks! I have shot archery for over 20 years. I have always shot a 3/16s because thats what I was told to use. I never knew why. I am changing my peep to a 1/4 asap!
Love it! Keep the content coming
chest rig is vital for proper peep set up
Chest rig stays on when you're shooting vids and arrows back & forth -DS (PS) - what's your channel, would love to watch your videos??? (not really).
@@ElkShape why lower yourself to trade insults with someone obviously beneath you. Are you not better than that?
@@ElkShape hahahaha can't just poke fun?? Hell, i do yard work in my Marsupial Gear harness cuz it holds 2 beers! Cheers man, and loosen up
@@cameronmelendrez8706 ... That's proper great to wear ;)
Thanks for all your help and advice
Bro I love your vids. Especially with MFJJ. So freakin informative & real.
Some really valuable information, especially for the newbies. Wished all New to Archery " peeps" would see this and all the other videos. Particularly the equipment related ones. If your using just a plain simple peep people can drill it out to find the best diameter. DONT DRILL IT WHILE ON THE STRING FOLKS. YOU WILL END UP DESTROYING YOUR STRING!!!!!
Keep up the the great videos it helps
Thanks for the video, I appreciate your opinion on dovetails
I use a 5/16 G5. Let’s in daylight earlier in the day and later at night. Still accurate with practice
I actually liked the chest rig in the video because it gave me a close up of the ranger green 👌🏻
I run no peep. Just did a couple of videos on it. Saw you at TAC San Antonio at the Annihilator Broadhead booth Dan. Can't wait for that review bud, I'll be doing one too. Impressive as hell so far.
??? At 5:10 you said "there is one or two brands that make one above 1/4, it's a 7-32..." Uumm, 7/32 isn't bigger than 1/4". It's smaller.
Think he meant 9/32. But yes, you are correct
fyi 7/32" is smaller than 1/4"
I was thinking the same thing 😂.. They probably meant 5/16".
9/32 is bigger. Theres only 1 peep ive found in that size and its the Extra Large size Eastman peep. 3 string deal
Right on, Peeps.
Here I am, a few days after getting my 3/16th peep tied in, and choosing it based on the light inside the archery shop.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but he said 7/32 is bigger than a 1/4???🤔
He had to mean 9/32 haha. Or 5/16??
5/16" 😁
Sorry if late to the party. A size above 1/4" is not 7/32". Question, what is 32 divided by 4?
It would be half… because increments of an in are always simplified to the smallest (odd) number. For instance you don’t say 2/8 you say 1/4
I currently run a 5/32 peep on both bows I own. Older One is 33” ATA and the newest one is 31” ATA. DL of 29.5. I love the 5/32 on the longer ata bow but now I’m questioning is the 5/32 is the right choice for the shorter ATA bow.
Looking for advice on my peep situation with my hunting rig. I have a Spothog Fast Eddie single pin sight on a Mathews V3 27, 28" draw. I like shooting at longer distances and currently I am set up for 20 yards and 60 yards in my yard but I can stretch it to 80 yards whenever. My peep was matched with my housing at 20 yards but if I plan to shoot past 60 yards for practice, should I adjust my housing to 40 yards and match my peep to that instead?
Whisper lite does a 7/32 aswell but its made out of hard rubber and plastic.
With a UV3, you need a smaller peep than the ones mentioned because the housing is smaller. I found like 1/8 or 3/32.
So my black gold is on a dovetail, r u saying I should set my sight as close to the riser as possible? I went w a dovetail to make sure I can get my ring inside my peep. Having the option to move the sight in n out allows u to get your ring inside your peep as easier as u know. With that good ring in peep alignment I won't torque the bow as easily as I will have a better visual reference, yes no? Thnx guys vids r awesome!
I got a 3/16 plastic peep and 3 drill bits... 13/64, 7/32 and 15/64, so I have 3 intermediate steps between 3/16 and 1/4, then used them one by one until having the perfect size, for me it was 7/32...
What I want to talk about first is why your doing this video with your chest rig 😂
Practice shooting like you hunt
Chest rig stays on when you're shooting vids and arrows back & forth -DS (PS) - what's your channel, would love to watch your videos??? (not really).
@@ElkShape I don’t get it
@@ElkShape wow dude, it’s called banter. If you’re going to clap back at someone who’s taken the time to watch your video and comment, you’re being a bit precious. Think I’ll head back to inside out precision.
@@ElkShape generic response. What a douche.
Love my raptor peep.
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice outstanding video THANKS
An archery industry pet peeve of mine is that the 7/32" is probably the best tweener "Goldilocks" size between 3/16" and 1/4" but of course the hardest to find!
I just got a new v3 set up and the black gold mountain lite, I have a 3/16 raptor peep and I think my draw length is 28.5. But my peep seems too big but my pro shop said that any smaller wouldn’t be good for hunting. What should I do? It’s super annoying
Has anyone told them that 7/32" is not bigger than 1/4"
That’s what I was thinking. Ummm, no mfjj that isn’t bigger than 1/4”
😂
I think they meant 5/16".
Fairly new archer here and had a question on what exactly I'm suppose to see when looking through my peep sight? I have a Blackgold Dual Trac with the bright green housing. Am I supposed to be seeing the entire green housing or should that be covered up and if I see it then I know I'm not aligned properly? I was using a 3/16" peep, but couldn't see any of the green so I moved up to a 1/4", but now I see daylight around my sight housing which got me thinking what exactly am I supposed to see through the sight? Moved the sight closer to me on the riser, but still see daylight around the housing. Depending on what should see I was either going to move back to 3/16" or try a 7/32" peep. Thoughts? Thanks for all the great videos and good luck this season!
7/32"
Moving a sight out farther past the riser means a longer sight radius. It may show more torque, but it's showing it not inducing it. That allows for the shooter to correct for the error. Just like the difference between rifle sights and pistol sights. More distance between the peep and the sight, the greater the accuracy. If I could stick my sight at the end of my stabilizer, and still see through it properly, I would. Can't.
I’m and SOOOOOO conflicted now.... I have a 27.75 “ draw and I run a 1/8 raptor peep.... a 13/16 peep with my IQ sight, but when I went to my MBG pro with a x-frame mount (set to the middle hole) I had to go down because my groups where WAY to open because I could never center my peep... I had WAY to much light around my housing.... I even have a 1/8 raptor in my new 31”V3 with the fast Eddie sight......what could be the reason that I need such a smaller peep? I anchor in the corner of my mouth and nose.... I even run a long d-loop which should move my head further away from the peep and make me need a larger peep.
I have to use a verifier in my peep since I can’t see my pins and I just cannot shoot with glasses on.
28” draw
Have 1/4” peep on Triax 28
Have 3/16” peep on V3 31
Zero issues
Good job MFJJ
I like my hamskea raptor peep
Dam now I wonder if I'm running to small of a peep on my garmin xero sight.. I use a 3/16.. I prob can use a 1/4
I remember when a kisser button was the bees knees. . . . Tried a dovetail for hunting and spending $500+ on that was the biggest mistake I've ever made but it looked cool.... Back to the lightweight TruGlo carbon hybrid for me. Ha
So if I have a 30 draw I need a 7/32 or a 1/4 I just don’t wanna buy wrong size
"Target shooters cheat..."
Shots fired!!
Ok, my 4th reply today on how folks don’t know how a peep works. The size of your sight housing means nothing. A peep is just a hole to look through. You BRAIN will center whatever pin your are staring at, in that peep. I shot indoor 300’s for decades. I used a 1” scope and used a micro peep. With that micro peep, I could only see the top of my level and the dot in the middle. I could NOT see the scope housing. Back in my day, when we first started bow hunting, the sights were just a flat plate with 4 brass pins sticking out. No housing, and we still used a peep.
Rifle shooters which is how I’m learned to use a peep. Rear aperture and just a front blade with a bead on top. Nothing it center up. You simply look through the peep and stare at that pin and your brain will center it for you.
This is my 5th video today. Now if you ask Levy and he agrees with you, I will
Be disappointed. Y’all have been told
Wrong for way too long.
Let’s say you do it your way. Aligning that peep around the housing. The clearest pin will be the one closest to the center of that housing. That’s how it works. This is why your brain takes over and centers you up for you. You stare at the pin you want to use, and go with a smaller peep and your brain centers you up. Also one less item for your draw cycle check list. People are creating way too
Many things to think about. The tens of thousands of folks you have been telling this wrong to will now suffer for years thinking you are right. Sorry boys, but your way is not even close.
That's absolutely incorrect. When I swapped from HHA tetra to a UV3 se, I had to switch peep sights because it was impossible to frame and align the UV with the peep size I had...now sure you could move the sight forward or back on the riser, but for folks who have their sight dialed in for the distances they shoot, moving the actual sight on the riser isn't an option...so you switch peep sizes to properly frame, which then allows better alignment.
Using rifles irons isn't completely equivalent. Alignment wise, yes...framing wise, no...peep/sight on bows rely on framing to obtain perfect alignment. If this isn't an issue for you, congratulations you don't shoot far enough to notice. If you've got alignment off by a small margin due to improper framing at 80, 90, 100+ then you can be off by 6+ inches on the target.
Hey guys I was thinking of trying the Total peep,
Peep sight have you ever tried it
I shoot one on two of my bows and they have done me very well!
At 5:11 you mentioned needing a peep larger than 1/4" and referenced a 7/32" peep as being larger. A 7/32" is going to be smaller than a 1/4". (7/32 + 1/32 = 8/32 which is 1/4.)
I can’t find these colored peeps on the website, could someone help me out please
Hamskea or super peep, those color peeps will give u glare in certain light conditions
No peep, no problems.
I run a 1/4" matte black peep but it fades out in low light. Has anyone had good luck with colored peeps such as pink, red, or green?
Supposedly blue or purple are good but best to compare in person and lighting close to what you'd expect to be hunting in
Haha and we all thought MFJJ was camera shy!
38 comments so far and nobody mentions that Dan is running Crispi shoes around the 4:08 mark!
Total peep comes in 7/32" best peep ever.
How many times did you guys think “That’s what she said” during this video?
Nobody?
Just me then...
Wait so the longer draw and ata the bigger peep you need?
If I'm not mistaken, the steeper the string angle, the larger your peep. Because a long draw length on short ATA bow would bring the peep further from your eye than it would on a larger ATA bow. It's a combo of DL and ATA, but it is more reliant on the ATA of the bow than DL of the archer
What peep do you guys have on your bows in the video ?
Question- why on my sight tape would the 50-70 yard marks be farther apart then the 70-110.
Something with sweet shot? Idk haha.
Arrow speed and flight-path/trajectory of the arrow. After a certain distance you'll notice your arrow will drop off after a long arc...the 50-70 is accounting for the down-side of that arc...from 70-100 it levels off and drops at a reduced rate.
Total peep do 7/32
Ok what about no peep?..thats how i shoot and having glasses it makes a difference
Are ya gonna rip into the milkshake song at some point? Lol
I buy a peep that is too small and I ream out the hole to the correct size
big holes small holes
