Considering EZ V sight and need feedback from users please

I shoot one. I’ve had it for just over a year. Shot a few hundred arrows from it and a deer. Some get it some don’t. I started with no peep at the same time. For a hunting sight I love it. It can take a lot of practice to train the brain and eye. Once done it’s fairly simple. For me it’s just felt more natural and less complicated. I used to draw, verify my peep to my scope then check my pin then verify again. After using the v on pro a long while. I got confidence with it. It’s really been draw, anchor , frame , then shoot. Anchoring consistently is a major part to success with it though.
 
Are u guys shooting 1 eye or both eyes open?
I have the evz, no peep, and shooting both eyes open and it feels so natural...I have my draw weight set pretty low so I am able to look at my aim point,draw the bow while my arms are down with the arrow pointed out at the ground in front of me, and slowly raise the V till my brain recognizes the gap and release. I never loose focus of the aim point...the V is not really in focus

I tried using the side without the tick marks but I like use the side with the yardage marks.

I shoot both eyes open. Just a habit from guns and transferred to archery. The deer I shot this year just felt plain good. No stress , no time burning verifying everything. I had a good buck pop up right behind me. I didn’t know the yardage. I just grabbed my bow. Pulled back. Framed it and sealed the deal. Perfect shot double lung arteries off the top of the heart. I like to use the leg as a reference for windage in the v and usually just envision a large kickball sitting on top of the leg/chest line.
 
I think that is 1 of my favorite things with ezv....I may still miss my mark but it is gonna be a vertical issue and not horizonal.....I pretty much lost all right to left misses when I switched from a pin sight..I don't know exactly why that gives me more confidence but it does for some reason...

Love the concept but reluctant to pull the trigger. I don't 3D shoot, just hunt and typically never shoot at deer over 30 yds max so seems like would be ideal for my needs.

Video - Single Pin Sight For Hunting Whitetails? Yeh - You!

I've posted on this topic before, but I figured I'd drop a video for those folks who hate watching me do something slightly less than reading about it. I've seen a couple more posts about screwing up a shot because of not knowing which pin to use. You can read a little more in depth on the...

I shoot with both eyes open as well. I also usually just miss high/low and it also isn't by much. I prefer the tick marks as well. It seems that I'm accurate with the pro setting out to 40 yards but I like to practice further and the ticks help with that. Also, I can use the tick marks to shoot grouse or other critters that are too small for the sight to function as designed.

Overall, I think it is worth it to try it. There is almost always one floating around here for resale. I would go that route and if you don't like it you could probably get your money back selling it again. That's the route I went
