Title: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: steeliedrew on November 27, 2012, 07:17:22 PM: Anyone know when the new Trophy Ridge react sight with the smart pin technology comes out? looks like a killer sight! There's a video on YouTube with one of the guys from heartland bowhunter testing it. I'm getting tired of the cheap sight that came with my pse brute and really want this sight!

Not a valid vimeo URL

please let me know what you find out. I'm pumped on this sight. sounds like you've probably tested it out? If so please let us know what you think about it.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on November 27, 2012, 07:35:31 PM: It is a new enough sight it will take awhile to spread out to the stores. Some places may not even stock them, but cableas is pretty good about keeping the trophy ridge line on the shelves :tup:

Post by: h20hunter on November 27, 2012, 07:45:39 PM: I noticed in the vid it has a reostat...how does one make it WA legal? Sweet looking sight.

Post by: steeliedrew on November 27, 2012, 07:51:02 PM: take the battery out while hunting maybe?
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: h20hunter on November 27, 2012, 07:52:05 PM: It is still attached.....battery in or not...
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: steeliedrew on November 27, 2012, 08:00:32 PM: maybe carpsniperg2 can chime in on this? That would bum me out if it wasn't legal. I'm. Assuming one can remove the rheostat.
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: h20hunter on November 27, 2012, 08:03:29 PM: That would be cool....looks like a great sight and dare i say foolproof.
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: carpsniperg2 on November 27, 2012, 08:16:03 PM: Have not had my hands on this sight yet. I would bet they thought about that and made it so it will detach.

Post by: deleted BGS on November 27, 2012, 10:32:39 PM: could you sigt the first pin in at 30 instead of 20 and have the pins follow?
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: steeliedrew on November 28, 2012, 04:55:00 AM: I don't see why not. the first pin is fixed to the sight ring. You dial that in with the sight ring adjustments. The next pin you dial in with the vertical and windage adjustments and the other pins follow suit.

Post by: steeliedrew on November 28, 2012, 08:09:18 AM: Just got word that you can get these through the smaller dealers right now but the larger stores like cabelas and bass pro won't have them until mid December.
Title: Re: Trophy Ridge react sight release date?
Post by: steeliedrew on November 28, 2012, 10:23:22 AM: also, the rheostat is removable.
