5-Pin .029 Fiber Optics Bow Sight with LED Sight Light

This not a paid review. This item was purchased for me by me. Review is also posted on my American Country Outdoors blog.Since its in between Archery seasons here in Arizona, I decided to change out my sight. I had the 3-pin that came standard on my Martin bow that I bought back in 2009. I was worried that the 5-pin I was going to buy would not match up to the bow as it was older. After searching on Amazon and reading different reviews on the "cheap" sights I finally found one that looked to be of good quality. There were not any real reviews on the product but I decided to make a move on it. Read below for the Pros and Cons that I have found for this product.ProsFit on my bow and assembly was easyCamo was as pictured and matched very close to my bowThe sight is made of solid material. When attached it didn't shake or make any noiseCost $22.99Very easy to adjust the sights. After shooting 600 arrows the sights never moved.The pins are the perfect size. Small enough to see a small dot 50 yards out on a target yet big/bright enough to be noticeable on the 3D deer targetConsThe LED light comes on randomly depending on how screwed on it isWhen shooting I never noticed the level at the bottom of the sightI wish there was a plug for the end of the screw to adjust the height of the whole sight. While adjusting I forgot I should have been adjusting the Pins, and move the entire sight. That was all user error though.In the end, I really enjoyed this product. I would recommend this product to everyone who is on a tight budget and looking for a solid 5-pin sight. If the LED light is an issue for you, you can always remove it. For the price it is a steal. I would have paid more money for this quality of product. Unless I decide to move to a single pin or 7-pin sight I wont replace this one.

I wanted to upgrade my old Parker 31's 4 pin black gold sight and didn't want any of these newer monstraucities of sights on my old bow. This sight fit the bill perfectly. It is just your basic sight, built heavy and sturdy. Fits the simplicity of the bow and the pins are nice and bright. The LED does work well, I tested it indoors with lights set to dim. My old bow is hitting dead on at 20,30,40,45 and 50. It's a little to slow to want to take shots further than 50 so it's staying where its at.

I bought this sight on amazon to set up a used compound bow. Reviews were good and so was the price. The sight I received had no allen wrenches (I had them already), no instructions (and neither did the website) and no way to mount the light (my biggest complaint). The pin housing has a threaded circular that is supposed to be used for mounting the light (guessing here). The light however is not threaded (guessing again but mine must have been a dud). I will be contacting amazon for a refund and step up to a better quality sight......UPDATE- the seller quickly replied to my complaint and made my purchase right and apologized. I am changing my rating now based on their response

I've been using the old brass pin sights since the mid 80s, my eyes aren't what they use to be. But these new Truglow pins make a huge difference, it's worth the money

Decent build quality, although the uv led failed almost immediately. But works well even with my recurve.

I was thinking this would be a cheap product but it is really good the price is great my friend bought one twice as much as this one and is not as good

sight works, very sturdy for the price. The fibre optic parts glow really well with the light on and in the sun.

love it
