New S.A.B.O. & Peep Eliminator??
 
Has any used or seen either one of these new products? The Tactical Achery Sysytems S.A.B.O. Sight 3 dot and/ or the Peep Eliminator. What are your thoughts good or bad on both products.

Also any idea if they'll fit a Hoyt Alpha Max?

Never seen one. Do you have a link?

Saw them in the back of the 2010 Bowhunter Mag. equipment edition.

It looks very interesting.The few reviews I read were very positive except one.I'm not in the market right now but if I were I'd get it from Cabelas.Great return policy if you decide it's not for you.

peep eliminator is a great product if your left eye dominate and right handed, or vice versa. i dont use it anymore just because i couldnt shoot past 30 yards with it for some reason?

Will the SABO fit on an Alhpa Max? Can't see and side angles of it, but looks like it will

I am shooting with a Hindsight and I love the idea behind it. It keeps the advantages of a peep with the rear reticle alignment of 2 circles but you don't have the drawbacks. I've seen the peep eliminator and it seems to be on the same idea minus the rear reticle. It makes it easier for me to line up and not have to squint through the peep. The bows I have shot with a peep I always found them awkward. I say go for it. It's a bit different to sight in but once it's set it's money.

The concept is the same as those railway sights for pistols so it should work fine.

I do however have 2 concerns with this sight.

1) In order to reflect the dots properly, the lens needs to be at least partially silvered. This will reduce the available light through the sight and "may" mean that your shooting time is reduced in low light conditions. This fact may be offset by the fact that you aren't using a peep which does something similar so it may be a NET 0 change.

2) The lens itself. I am not a fan of lenses on hunting sights. Way too much potential for water droplets to collect on the lens and obscure your aiming point. I have hunted in some pretty crummy weather and would have been SOL if I had to deal with glasses or lenses of any sort.

I just recieved/ sent back the SABO the same day I got it. What a $150 pile of junk. Screws not machined flush, dots that reflected are blurred/ double triple vision of same dot. R & D missed the one. Hopefully those guys go by the way side and stop try to make advancements without the knowledge or machines to make a solid product.

Thanks for doing that as much of a pain as it is. It's amazing how much of this stuff is crap.

As for the hind sight I used one once, works on targets pretty well but when the light fades and the target is a deer the thing is way to much in the way. Just too much crap between you and the target. I fixed that by replacing the ring with a fiber optic pin. When you line the front pin up with the back and look at the target magic happens, your vision see's the one pin right through the other. Hold your finger up away from you and look at it, now look at a distant object. You can see right through your finger, same thing with the pins. Use a red and green and your gold.:)
