pendulum sights?
With todays pendulum sights being so accurate and my comfort zone 35yds or less I am thinking about trying one.
So... Help me out.
Who has uses or has used one? What kind? Likes? Dislikes? A friend of mine has the Summot Hot dot, but I don't really want to use anything electronic.

I have one, it is a Cobra sight. I like it, i dont know how much of a difference it is though. I am dead on with it up till like 25-28 yards, but if i lock it in place im dead on up till about 25....

RE: pendulum sights?
I have the Trophy Ridge Mantix. This is the first year of shooting it. I shot at a doe and shot under her. They say to be 15 ft high and it's should shoot out to 30 yards once sighted in. Well I sighted it in and she was 25 yards out. I'm not putting the blame on it cause it could have been me. I'm goin out this weekend so I'll let ya know if I get one how it did or how I did!!!

RE: pendulum sights?
I used a Keller for about 3-4 season. It was dead on accurate out to about 35-40 yards. I took several deer with it and would still be using it had I not gotten a new Guardian last year. With the speed of todays bows, pendulums are almost obsolete. The only downfall about the Keller sight was that it had a decent bit of vibration when taking the shot. That said... I never had a deer duck or jump my shot because of it.
