I'm always experimenting with my hunting bows . I have tried many sights ,and drop away rests , etc.
I'm going back to keeping it simple , so I stripped off the drop away away rests on two of my hunting bows and went back to a Whisker Biscuit on the Mathews LX , and a NAP 360 capture rest on the Kodiak Outdoors Titan 34 . I shoot just as good with the capture rests as I do the drop away ,and I spend less time keeping them tuned .
Both bows have single pin moveable sights .

I can't bring myself to try some of the "new" stuff. I've had the same NAP Quicktune Micro rest and Copper John sights for years. Until one of them breaks I guess I'll stick with them.

I think I would like a single pin movable site. Just looks like it would be better for me.

I use the same on my LX. Whisker biscuit and single pin moveable sight. Great setup for hunting in my opinion

One reason I took the Cobra off the Kodiak was because it was making a clicking noise in cold weather when I came to full draw .
I took the Muzzy Zero Effect off the Mathews LX because it didn't seem to be dropping away fast enough and I was getting some fletching contact . I just got tired of screwing with tuning rests when I could keep things simple and focus on my form , not rest timing issues and noise .
