Lets see your sights

[Deitz Dittrich]

You looking for more of a hunting or target set up?

here is my family picture..

[DonBo]

Quite the fleet ya got there DD. Why don't ya break one of them bad boys out and do a couple 3D shoots with me?

[Deitz Dittrich]

I probably should.. would need to get er sighted in.. that and you would kill all my fobs.. LOL

[Powerstroke]

WHich rest are you using with your FOB's DD?

I've got a ripcord and I've had a heck of a time getting it to time right for the FOB's.

[sticknstring]

Sounds like a timing issue. Just keep tweaking with it until you get it to work. I'd set the rest closest to the riser/shelf as you can and then just time the cord until it clears. You could give Starrflight a call direct too - I've heard they're very helpful.

[Deitz Dittrich]

I have a trophy taker.. works fine.

Everyone who replied must not be able to read the original post. Totally off the subject

[sticknstring]

Sorry schmoe, I've got an HHA DS-5510.

[lungdeflator]

I think SNS and Schmoe147 are the same guy...He just starts threads so he can show off his new bow all the time! lol

Kiddin aside though...SNS--- Is there a difference in the "big wheel" on the side like you have vs. the ones with the littler knob? I wish I had better terms for these things...

[sticknstring]

It can't be... this schmoe character is looking at Hoyt's! I didn't want to post it but he asked nicely twice in the same post - I really had no option.

The small knob is used on the Optimizer Lite models. The "big wheel" is used on the Ultras.

Small:

Big:

Clear as mud?

[klecker]

Nothing to special but the arrows go were needed. Going to remove the third one as I don’t use it.

[lungdeflator]

Ok thanks. Does it make a difference at all between the small or big adjustment? I know theres other differences like the HD, but just curious about the big/small adjustment thing...

[lungdeflator]

Heres the current sight I have: Cobra sidewinder. Not the exact one but I dont have a pic of mine on hand.

[DonBo]

Black Gold Flash Point.

In low light, FlashPoint's PhotoChromatic shell self-adjusts to clear, thus allowing in maximum light.

In bright sunlight, the shell darkens, blocking UV light so pins don't get too bright.

Yes, I do have a 5 pin, 20-60 yards. I shoot summer leagues and a lot of 3D shoots and need the extra pins for that.

[Code-Man]

Here is a picture of mine. I was shooting a Tru Glow 5 pin but I didn't like how big the pins were so I switched to this one. It is so adjustable its amazing. This is the TRU Ball Armour Tech with 5 pins. They make a 7 pin and with my Mathew's first pin is at 20 yards I cannot justify more pins then 5 and technically I do not even use the 5th pin and maybe in the future I will but in 99.9% of my hunting I wont be shooting over 40 yards.

[HeviShot]

I love my 5 pin flashpoint!

[klecker]

Okay I like those. For some reason I have to have pins that are vertical and not horizontal. Don’t know what it is but I might as well pound nails with no nails. Might look into those.

With the dial, the yardage range is spread out over a greater area. It makes it a little easier when adjusting yardages. They both do the same thing. It's all personal preference to which one you like.

Dont worry just got back from shooting a few bows I had in mind and the Z9 will be going with me hunting this year. WOW is it smooth. 304FPS set-up not bad either. I was a little worried about string angle with the shorth ATA but with my 32"DL it wasnt a problem. Now I just have to decide between camo with yellow or blacked out with yellow

[sticknstring]

Good choice - that's a sweet bow. If it had been 32" ata, I might own one as well. The camo/yellow looks pretty good. I haven't seen a black one yet - I'd order one up!

Why did you choose it over the Hoyt's you were considering?

[schmoe147]

Felt alot better in my hand, more comfortable. Very little vibration. Its a MATHEWS!!!!
