Default Black Gold Sights! Does flashpoint work??

I'm looking at the Black Gold sights and i was wondering if this new Flashpoint light "Photo-Cromatic" system works like they say. The other sight i am really looking at are the Hogg-It sights. Anybody have any advice!

Both sights that have great reputations. I've never owned either so I cannot offer any opinions on them. But you might want to check out the Apex Hunter or Twilight Hunter sights by Sword. Just bought my first Sword......the Twilight Hunter sight and so far I love it. Built like a tank, 3rd axis adjustment, and the 3 stage light is amazing.

I dont own one myself but the flashpoint will darken when the sun is too bright to keep the pins from starbursting.

The Flash point does work, but I would not consider ita top notch sight.

There is no comparison to the Spot Hoggs and Vipers IMHO.

Yes it does work,i had one before and when sun is super bright pins stay at a reasonable brightness.And in low light or ground blind situations it allows as much light in as possible for a nice bright pin.
As far as construction and quality they are top notch you cant go wrong with a black gold sight.....

i have one on my bow my wifes bow and just put one on my buddies bow.in my opinion the brightest on the market day and evening,lifetime warranty,dont matter what you do theyll have a new piece on its way instantly,excellent customer service. we went to a local shoot with some people who had never tried archery and were letting them shoot our bows ,when we got home my wifes sight was missing her bubble ,not a big deal but wrote the company and inthree days had a new one in the mail.anyway i love everything about them.
