Default RE: Is the Summit hot dot worth the $$

ORIGINAL: SwampCollie

I think the technology is great. I think that its a good thing for companies to experiment and try new stuff. That said, when I picked one up and looked at it, the 6 dots all came together as one solid red fuzzy line when I was focusing on a distant target (this of course is out of package in the store, not being used on a bow, but take it for what it is). That was enough to make me put it back.

Moreover, I do not like reliying solely on electronics/batteries for a sight. If the batt quits for any reason, or any wiring etc comes loose, I have no way to sight my bow. I'd rather have some sort of traditional pin sight with a lighted back up. If the light fails, I can still use my pins normally. Sort of like illuminate crosshair rifle scopes vs. red dots. Give me an illuminated retical anyday.
Don't they use batteries to start fighter jets?and for all there weapons systems and gps?don't hate the game hate the player!just my opinion!!
