Title: Bow sights?
Post by: steelhead13 on June 08, 2011, 08:54:57 AM: I have been looking for some new sights for my bow tech but i am not sure what to get. I know the spot Hoggs are awesome but i was kinda looking for something a little cheaper. I also like the Trophy Ridge Micro hitman 5-pin sights, but i don't know much about them. Any input would help, thanks

I have used their sights for the last 3 years on the 3-D course and in the mountains in elk season and I have been very happy with them. Most of my customers are using them as well with the Centurion being the most popular.

what do you mean most of your costumers? What kinda business are you in.
you can't go wrong with the spot-hogg.

I don't have one of these, but want one. I've had issues with pins being too bright during day and too dark at dusk. Spendy though so I may not get one before this hunting season. Also have the option of customizing (I like the idea of small pins for my 50-80 yard pins)

I have a small archery shop: "6 Point Archery" in Walla Walla.
Nothing wrong with Spot-Hogg sights at all..they make a very fine product as well..I just sell more of the Sword line and Brandon and the Sword crew have been great to deal with since I took on their line of sights.
