The Fast Eddie NE Double Pin Sight is the Nock On Edition of Spot Hogg’s Fast Eddie platform, built around a single vertical up pin with two 0.019 fiber-optic aiming dots. John Dudley uses the two-pin setup for hunting situations where he can range and fine-tune to the yard. You get single-pin precision on a specific distance, with a backup reference dot right below it.
The sight mounts directly to your bow with no removable dovetail, keeping it compact enough to travel with in your bow case. It ships with the white/flo-green/white front aperture ring plus a solid all-white ring, green and red fiber-dot color options, a double pointer on the dial that reads out both pin yardages at once, and an extended sight tape that reaches 110 yards on slower bows and 120 yards once you’re at 11 or faster on the speed scale. Both red and green tape kits come in the box.
John Dudley designed this configuration around situations where you’ve got time to range: hunting over a feeder, over decoys, in a ground blind, or sitting on a food source. The two-pin layout gives you single-pin precision without losing a backup reference if the animal moves on you.
Core Benefits of the Fast Eddie NE Double Pin Sight
-
Single-Pin Precision with a Backup Dot: Dial the top pin to your exact yardage for fine-tuned aim, and use the second fiber-optic dot directly below for a fixed-distance reference if the animal shifts before the shot
-
Compact Direct Mount: The fixed hard mount keeps the sight tight to the bow, so you can travel with it in your case and your stabilizer protects it from the mud when you set the bow down
-
Extended Sight Tape Range: Reach 110 yards on slower setups and 120 yards on bows at 11 or faster on the scale, with red and green tape kits both included so you can run the color you see best
-
Bulletproof Build with Lifetime Warranty: Solid 6061 aluminum construction, HRD Technology with no bushings or slop, and Spot Hogg’s lifetime warranty behind it
Fast Eddie NE Double Pin Features
Single Up Pin with Two Fiber Dots and Dual Yardage Indicator
The housing uses Spot Hogg’s vertical-pin design with two 0.019 fiber-optic dots stacked on a single up pin. The top dot is your dialed yardage. The second dot sits at a fixed distance below it for a secondary aiming reference, with no horizontal pin clutter.
A dual yardage indicator on the dial reads out both pin yardages at once, so you know where your top pin AND your bottom pin are set without doing the math in your head. John Dudley uses this read-out to keep his backup pin in mind on every shot: dial the top to 25, glance at the dial, and you know your second dot sits at roughly 35 to 40.
Green and Red Fiber-Dot Color Options
The Nock On Edition fiber dots come in green and red. The two colors give you contrast between the top and second dot in your sight picture, so you can instantly pick which one to use when the shot opens up.
John Dudley took this vote to the Nock On Nation, and the response came down 50/50 between green and red. That’s why both color options are available on the Double Pin.
Front Aperture Ring Options
The Double Pin ships standard with the white/flo-green/white front aperture ring and a solid all-white ring. The white/flo-green/white ring works in most light. The solid all-white ring gives you the cleanest contrast when you’re in a dark hunting blind, in heavy timber canopy, or shooting through a smaller peep.
John Dudley uses the solid all-white when light is dropping or when he’s in low-light cover. It’s the easiest ring to pick up against a darker peep, which is the moment most archers struggle with alignment.
Extended Sight Tape
The NE versions ship with an extended sight tape instead of a standard length. If your bow’s on a 1 to 10 on the speed scale, you’ll reach out to 110 yards. Once you’re at 11 or faster, the tape carries you to 120.
Both red and green tape kits come in the box. The vote from Nock On Nation came down dead-even between the two colors, so you get the full kit in both to pick what reads cleanest against your dial.
Direct Mount, No Removable Dovetail
The Fast Eddie NE Double Pin uses a fixed hard mount instead of a removable dovetail. It’s compact enough that you can leave it on your bow when you pack the case for a trip.
John Dudley specs this depth on purpose: when you set the bow down in the field, your stabilizer protects the sight housing from going down into the mud and debris. It’s the same logic he uses for his own hunting builds.
Toolless Adjustments and Silent Yardage Lock
Coarse horizontal and vertical adjustments are toolless, so you can rough-in your sight without an Allen wrench. The yardage knob has a silent, quick-release lock that holds your setting without click noise. The 2nd and 3rd axis adjustments are micro-adjustable for getting your bubble dialed in at any distance.

Fast Eddie NE Double Pin Performance

Frequently Asked Questions About the Fast Eddie NE Double Pin Sight
What’s the gap between the two pins?
The gap between the two fiber dots on the single up pin is fixed by the housing. The actual yardage distance between them depends on your bow speed and your peep-to-sight distance. Most setups land between 10 and 20 yards of pin separation.
For a common example, if your top pin sits at 25, your second dot will commonly fall around 35 to 40 yards based on arrow speed.
Is the second pin adjustable?
No. The two fiber dots are fixed on a single up pin, which is what gives this sight its clean, vertical sight picture without a horizontal pin cluttering the view. If you want adjustable pin spacing, the Fast Eddie NE Triple Stack lets you micro-adjust each pin to your chosen yardages.
When is the 2-pin a better choice than the 5-pin?
John Dudley recommends the 2-pin for hunting situations where you have time to range and fine-tune the dial. That includes hunting over a feeder, over decoys, in a ground blind, or sitting on a food source. The 2-pin runs well for turkey hunting over decoys, where you know the distance ahead of time and can set the sight for that exact yardage.
For run-and-gun hunting where you don’t have time to range and dial, the 5-pin gives you multiple fixed pins and a rover bottom pin. That’s what John Dudley personally hunts with in those situations.
What’s the yardage range on the extended sight tape?
The NE versions ship with an extended sight tape. If your bow’s at a 1 to 10 on the speed scale, you’ll reach 110 yards. Once you’re at 11 or faster, the tape carries you to 120.
Both red and green tape kits come in the box, so you can pick the color that reads cleanest against your dial.
How does the direct mount affect setup and travel?
The fixed hard mount keeps the sight tight to the bow. John Dudley specced this depth on purpose: when you set your bow down in the field, your stabilizer takes the contact and the sight housing stays out of the mud and debris.
The compact profile means you can leave the sight on your bow when you pack the case. No need to remove it for travel, no re-sight when you get to camp.
Which front aperture ring works best for me?
The white/flo-green/white ring works well in most light conditions and is the standard ring most archers run. The solid all-white ring gives you the cleanest contrast in low-light situations: hunting blinds, heavy canopy, dawn and dusk, or any time you’re shooting through a smaller peep where light gathering matters more.
Both rings ship with the sight, so you can swap based on the conditions you’re hunting. John Dudley defaults to the solid all-white when light starts to drop.
