fasteddie Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I really like the TruGlo single pin bow sights but I broke down today and bought a 5 pin TruGlo Micro Brite sight with the removable push button light . The pins vary from .top 029" - .bottom 019" . It was a $130 sight that was reduced to $70 . With coupon , reward coupon and gift card , it didn't cost me anything . I'll put it on sometime next week . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzzyLoader Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Eddie... you do wear a mask when you shop don't you??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loworange88 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I've contemplated switching from a multi pin to a single pin on a pendulum. I like the pendulum as one could really dial in distances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13BVET Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I use a sniper sight. The multiple pins in different colors drive me batty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 The TruGlo sight that I bought has 5 neon green pins . They are 5 different sizes . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet old bill Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 that a great sight if you have good eyes. Now being 70 I have the 3 pin in .029 size pins on one bow and the other has a slider scope sight in the .029 fiber optic.I seem to like the slider better for shooting targets but still like the 3 pin for hunting. I have it sighted in at 25, 35 and 45 yards... good shooting with you new sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I've always thought that the sites with progressively smaller pins were neat. Let us know how you shoot with it. Sounds like you got a good deal too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doewhacker Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Eddie, I have that exact sight and love it over all, I have had it for a year and have very few complaints. Personally I would have liked a .19 pin for twenty instead of .29 but I do ok reguardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 I won't get to try it for a while . My wife had re-constructive foot surgery yesterday and I am going to be playing nurse-maid for a few weeks . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Make sure to pick up a nice little nurse costume to wear for her, you know the skimpy ones they sell for Halloween. Im sure she will appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasteddie Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 The wife had a torn / ruptured tendon which they removed . Then they slid another tendon up to replace the removed one . They also cut open her heel and put a couple screws in there . Her foot is in a splint and she is not to put any weight on that foot . In 2 weeks they will take the staples out and put her foot in a cast for 6 - 8 weeks . Then she will have to wear some sort of support boot and have physical therapy . She won't be doing much with that left foot for a while ! In the meantime , my job is to be a Go-fer ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasteddie Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 The Vicodin is keeping her calm plus I borrowed an ice machine from a frield . You put ice and water in a tank . There is a pump with hoses and a ribbed thing with velcro . The ice water circulates through the hoses and helps keep the swelling down in her foot .

nybuckboy Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I've contemplated switching from a multi pin to a single pin on a pendulum. I like the pendulum as one could really dial in distances. All I've ever used... single pin pendulum Tru-Glo. I changed out the fibre from green to orange as I see it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
