Have any of you guys seen this or used it? Saw it on spirit of the wild and thought it looked cool. i would like to hear some thought on it though.

It looks neat. All futuristic and what not. Here's another recent sight--http://www.trijicon.com/na_en/products/product1.php?id=AccuPin (http://www.trijicon.com/na_en/products/product1.php?id=AccuPin)Accupin. A lot of technology and research going into bows/arrows right now. So if companies are willing to invest in these products, they must think hunters will buy them. I think they are right. I like that they are producing some real quality products with sound engineering. Gives some good potential for hunters to make better shots. (now for the con) I also think, not to really blame manufacturers, that this kind of tech will tempt some to take some rather risky shots. I even got a kick out of the stabilizer with a quad picatinny that was on their site! Something I see a lot with the rifle/handgun crowd, probably carry over to archery world---when the word tactical can be attached to the equipment, some users automatically think it gives some added accuracy or improved ability and magically become snipers.

I think we are on the same page. I like the idea and think it has a lot of potential and like that it has no batteries so it is legal.
-
I dont think that it is legal because it has a lens and I think would be considered a scope (even though it doesnt magnify).
on another note i have seen and played with one and it was junk IMHO
-
I am in South Dakota so it is legal, but I would like to hear why you tink it is junk, i.e. poor design, poor quality ect...
Thanks

the red dots are actually fiber optics that are like 6-7 inches form the reflective lens and you see a reflection. just seems gimmicky to me. been a year snce i saw it and i dont remember the construction very well, but it seems like i remember a lot of plastic... maybe... maybe not.
nothin wrong with the tried and true pins we are already using.

Holy crap! $495 for that Trijicon. I was really liking their frame and dial theories, but then I saw the price. Maybe they want military snipers to start using them because that's the only set of pockets deep enough for that price in a hunting sight.

Cabelas has the SABO for 149 and i thought that was a lot to spend. 5 bills is sofar out of my budget it isn't even funny. it looks cool though
