Who makes good 0.10" sights? #1534787 07/16/10 02:40 PM

We shoot weekly and I've been wanting to try out some 0.10" sights instead of the 0.19" pins I have now. At 30 yards, the one-inch dots we shoot are completely covered by my 0.19" pins. At 40, it starts to affect where you aim, as the dot is completely gone and then some. My grouping is okay at 30 yards ignoring the occasional flyer when I jerk the trigger, but it might be 2" high, 3" to the left, etc, because I just cannot see the dot on the target because the pins are too big.

Also, does extending the sight out in front of the bow help with this? I've seen some of the hunting sights now stick out in front of the bow an extra 6" or so. It seems like that would help, even with the 19s.

This is what i have with 5x .10 pins.. i only use 2 and have the others dropped to the bottom for now. I was worried about the pins not being bright enough, but this one is perfect

I took a look at them just now and they do look sweet. I might have to order a set. Are they easy to adjust?

Sold... I don't typically tinker with my sights once they're set, but it's nice to be able to move them easily if you change arrow brand, change broadhead, or get new strings and cables on the bow.

Picked up a set of the truglo microbrite sights at the local shop here. Makes it easy that they are easy to convert to LH use. Haven't put them on the bow yet, but I'm itching!
