    Peep sight for night time hunting

    what are you guys using for hog hunting at night? I just can't find my peep in dark nights. I've considered this:



    a bigger peep but what's the pros and cons of a bigger peep?

    Any glowing peeps out there?

        Might even try some white out on the peep.

            I wonder if you have to order it or if you can find it somewhere?

              It costs 9 bucks. there's also one called Glow-on. Pretty much the same stuff





              I don't need a bottle of this stuff, just enough to put on a peep.

              I just took one of those glow star stickers off the ceiling of one of the kids rooms and cut out a top and bottom piece for my peep. I was able to find it and look through it in a completely dark room. It probably won't stay on but at least I found something that works.

              EDIT: just bought some on that ebay link. Lets see how it goes. I will report back. 10 bucks worth a try, I can also use it on my camera and on one of my pistols. I'd still like to know what you guys are using.

                I would go with a bigger peep, Even with it glowing you may not be able to see thru it. I will check and see what the size I have and get back to you. When I went to the bigger peep the problem was solved. Still can group tight I use the outside of my sight to line up in the peep instead of the inside if that makes since.

                  My setup for night hunting is a 1/4" peep with glow paint on the top and bottom, lighted sight pin and Mini-Sniper light (red). Works well for me. You can charge the Glow paint with a black light and it will glow a good while - better than regular light and much quicker.

                      My peep is 1/4 as well and works. I really don't want to mess with putting in anothe peep and will try the glow-on. I was able to look through it with the glow stickers on it, so I bet this solves my problem. I will also use it to put some dots on my fletchings and dropdown rest to locate everything in the dark.

                        Do alot of practicing at night. I use my 1/4". I tried the glow paint, but ended up with a hat light(green) and lit my sit pins and peep up.

                          Have you tried flashing that paint with a camera flash?

                          I know that works on watch hands and other things with luminiscent paint and it works real good on glow in the dark airsoft BBs
