[opinion] The dead nuts is over rated! My mom got one for 60.00 bucks and I got my wife a Toxonics Hybrid III in black and it is just as nice! One diffrence is, the diameter of the fiberoptics they are smaller in the dead nuts. The Hybrid III is lighter and cheaper [/opinion]

Looks like a Toxonics "Ad"vocate. On this issue, Toxonics makes a good product and I buy/sell a lot of them; but, the Dead Nuts has features that I find very appealing. Seems like you're very "ad"amant about this subject.

Thanks, Gromage1, for the advise. I wasn't aware that they were setting up for camo. I put my order in today.

No, we just had high hopes for the dead nuts and it was not all it was cracked up to be. The only plastic on the toxonics is the pin guard. Its has gang adjust just like the dead nuts too.

In the process of setting the deadnuts up we broke a pin. Now my step dad broke it but it seemed too easy to break.

I do admit it get a little spirited some times <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Am I mistaken, I seem to recall there are two pin sizes for the nuts, at least as far as the Pro vs the regular one. I like the nuts pin/guard area, but the bracket and drives are clunky. Last year when I looked at it the machining didn't knock me over, it didn't seem all that well finished on the edges.

I love my Dead Nuts site. It is by far my favorite of all the sites that I have looked at. I will have to get the camo one for my next bow. They are the most solid site that I have looked at. just my opinion Great site

Yes, you're right. The basic DN has the .029 pins while the Pro DN has .019 pins.
