New Zealand Dreaming?

Bowsight advice
Hi Guys, I'm about to set myself up with my first bow. I've narrowed down my sight choice to either the Axcel Accutouch HD slider 3 pin or the Black gold Ascent verdict assault 3 pin. I'd be interested to hear people's thoughts on both these sights, which one would you choose and why? Any... -
