I think mine movessome due to bow vibrations.I've used TR since they came out.I'm going to change from a 3 pin to a five pin and the G5 looks good to me.I'm glad to hear it doesn't move.Thanks

yea and u will love how the setup..they have a chart with ur speed of ur arrow and it is dead on...then u just move the whole sight...they have a nce system for it...u just turn the screw at the bottom of the sight...same way with the windage it is very nce to setup i was dead on in 6 shots...and all my distances according to the sight were rigt on the money out to 60 yards. no individual tunning..very slick love it never go wrong with it....

I have the G5 4 pin, and it's been a great sight for me. I switched to that from a Trophy Ridge Guide Series 3 pin because the Trophy Ridge slide mount snaped while I was shooting. No problems with the G5 yet
