String sight

[TX_Kevin]

I can see it being nearly un-usable on the really short A2A bows such as the DXT. With my luck though I'd get one of those little metal pins stuck in my nose right before I punched the trigger and I'd rip half my nose off.

Your luck is like mine.

Neat idea. Makes me wonder if 1 pin used with a peep site and a mulitple pin site would work well for an anchor point, or for you guys who night hunt and can't see through your peep, instead of a kisser button.

The $24.95 price (cheap) includes how many pins? It does not say but the picture looks like 3.

When it comes to bow hunting and rigging I am a newbie. Really newbie (just bought my bow in May of this year) so I am always looking at different sights, rests, etc. and in the little research I have done I had not seen anything like this before and was wondering if it was legit or not. I have been told that your farthest shot would be out to about 40 yards but I guess it depends on the shooter and type of sight.

If you're that new, you should concentrate on your form, with the equipment you already have. The different sight isn't going to make you a better hunter, only distract you from practicing at "good" distances. By good distances, I mean distances that you're actually going to feel comfortable shooting an animal during your first year of hunting with a bow. I can shoot a target, comfortably, out to 50 yards. The longest shot I've ever taken at an animal was this past weekend, and that was 30 yards ... only because I knew the animal wasn't quick enough to jump the string.

Practice with what you've got and get proficient with it and don't rush out and buy every gimmick you see.

Just close the left eye when you aim. No problem.

Yep, that's what I do but closing that eye does make things more difficult in low light when you're sitting inside a blacked out bow blind.

This product isn't for me, but I can see how it could help some people.
