I currently have a Vital Gear Camelback pendulum sight. It's a great sight, very bright single pin, accurate out to (maybe) 35 yards. BUT... I am thinking of changing sights for this coming season. I am thinking of going back to a standard 3 pin sight. Don't get me wrong, I like the pendulum sight, but, it shakes and shimmys, even when locked down.

I am looking at Hunter's Friend website (these guys are great![8D] ) and looking at the various sights they have for bowhunting.

Does anyone know about the new Extreme Archery sights? The basic Challenger sight looks pretty neat. So does the next model up, the RT-900 model that comes with 4 pins.



Has anyone had a pendulum and went back to a standard sight?

A buddy of mine had that Extreme sight, he switched to a wrapped Hunter Hogg It and never regretted it. I've got a Spot Hogg too and and don't see myself changing. They are very nice.

Butch, I've not shot a pendulum, but I shot a single pin slider for 4 years. This year, in an effort to be a more competitive 3D shooter, I installed a 5 pin sight. I never really got very comfortable with that, and just switched back to a single pin slider.

Personally, once I got used to having only 1 pin out there, the multi pin set up did nothing but confuse me. My sight picture is suddenly more cluttered, and I had to consciously think about which pin to use. It was very difficult for me to aim and think about which pin I needed to be using.

I don't see me ever going back to a multi pin set up. It's just so much simpler, for me anyway.
