micro adjusters on sight?

[loworange88]

Hey everyone.  I'm thinking of upgrading my bowsight, and have comtemplated the micro adjusters that are built in on some sights.  Are they worth the extra money?  In theory would you even have to use them after the bow is tuned and sighted in? 

 

Anyone who has used or currently uses them I would like some feed back.

 

Thanks.

once the bow is tuned and sighted in you'll pretty much not have to touch it.  as you shoot thought and get in better or worse shape your form changes very slightly.  you might see a slight change of point of impact then but not much that many worry about.  that said micro adjust is nice to get dialed exactly right on.  multiple ways some do it but my Axcel sight for example you loosen allen screw for a pin then turn the micro adjust knob to move it and the others stay in place.  otherwise you loosen the pin screw and hope you don't bump the pin and lose your previous spot.  in general you're getting more than micro adjust though.  usually sights with micro adjust are just built to take abuse better then cheaper ones without with say hard polymer plastic pins and/or housing.

...so I think it's worth it but not required.  saves you time getting sighted in well though.

If the cost is only about $5 more I would get this feature. Otherwise once you are sighted in the amount of adjustment is  zero.

Micro adjust is the way to go. All I've used for the last 5 years. It makes sighting in so much easier! Especially if you have 5 pins like I do. I'm actually gonna have a trophy ridge react 5 pin for sale soon...

For me it's a must have on a sight and a rest but I'm always tinkering with different shafts, tip weights, etc

I had micro on the last 2 sights I owned and then when I got a new sight last year I didn't think I needed it,what a mistake.Micro adjust make sighting in and fine tuning a hell of a lot easier and more enjoyable that without.Its worth the extra bucks IMO
