I' ve never tried one but I have been considering using one this year. I can see where the pins would have a tendency to move around more. A small movement of the bow at the grip will be exagerated at those pins that are further away. Although, you' re only talking about another 6" or so further away so that extra movement might not be as great as one would think.

I like the idea of the pins appearing smaller on an extended sight. The .019 fiber optic pins on my current sight are pretty small, but I like the idea of seeing a smaller dot and a little more of the target.

I also think that accuracy should be improved, at least a little. It' s kind of like shooting a rifle using the iron sights; you should be more accurate with a longer barreled rifle than a shorter one because the distance between the rear sight and front sight is longer. And if your pin is appearing a little smaller, you should be able to aim at a smaller area of the target, which should improve your accuracy.

But then is it enough change to really make it worth it? A .019 pin on a standard sight will cover a little less than 3/4 of an inch of the target at 30 yards. And if you move those sight pins out 6" further, you' re still covering about 5/8" of the target. So you' re only making up 1/8" .

I guess Rack is probably right; they probably don' t offer any real advantage for hunting applications. But being stubborn as I am I think I' ll try one anyway.
