I have one. I have only used it a little but its probably the best sight out there imo. I got it for $160 from eders.com with my membership. You will be pleased.

I have a spot hogg but if i ever replace it thats the one I will get. My old man has is very well made, And there is a micro adjustment for your pins.

I've got a 7 pin all .019 pins. I think the .010 pins may be too small. I love the pin atjustment. You can either do a gang move or each pin will micro adjust.
It's also got the 3rd axis adjust. However it won't mean much if you don't get the 1st and 2nd axis set properly.
It's also got a place for a light. But don't get caught with it here in WA. Hunting that is.

I've got one of their 5 pin models.  Unfortunately, I decided to try a single pin adjustable for a few years, so my $190 Armortech is sitting in my drawer.  Construction is excellent or higher.  Usability is excellent.  Adjustment is excellent and precise.  It's basically the last sight you'd ever need because it isn't going to break down....ever.  What sold me on it was the clarity of the fine cut ends of the pins coming through the tubes instead of the melted fibers of every other sight.  Most 0.19" pins are melted out to make a 0.3" dot or bigger, but these are exactly the 0.19" they should be.  The aiming points seem more like a .09" fiber but retain the light gathering ability like a 0.29" pin.  For serious 3D shooting I found myself putting a piece of black tape over the fiber area because it got to be too much in some light conditions, and closing that area off completely smoothed it out nicely; I'd take the tape off for hunting, though, just to get the most light I could.

I have one on both of my bows. I have tried many sights and this is by far the best made and easyest to use. Buy one of these sights and you will never replace it.

I have the spot hog boss on my Maxis great sight but it doesn't hold a candel to my axcel 7 pin on my element. Constuction and function is second to none. When I sell the bow the site will stay with me. :twocents:

"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

I have an Armortech HD Pro sitting in the box, I entered a drawing and won it.

It's a really nice sight, but weighs a ton. My Spot Hogg wrapped is alot lighter and brighter.
