RE: Trophy Ridge Matrix
Why not consider the Flatliner. It is much less expensive and still has the basic feature of the vertical pin technology. I have used it for quite a while now and am very happy with it. For me, it is much easier to use the vertical sighting than it is to use the horizontal and this sight offers a no-frills design that is much, much less expensive than the Matrix.

RE: Trophy Ridge Matrix
I use the Trophy Ridge Matrix with five .019" pins. I like the vertical pins better than my old sight with horizontal pins. My friend has one with the .029" pins and I tried that one first. At 20 and maybe even 30 yards I didn't have a problem with that diameter but when I practiced at 40+, it covered too much of the target. I don't have a problem with noise but I also use the allen screws, not the thumb screws. Once you get it set up, you shouldn't mess with it anyway. I found the glow sticks to be a pain in the arse so I don't use them. They get to be expensive also. This year, they released a small light that mounts to the top of the sight that is supposed to light up the fiber optics. I just picked it up but haven't had time to mess with it yet.
Bottom line is that I like mine. Are their better sights, maybe. Are there cheaper sights, absolutley. It's all personal opinion. Get a cheap one off of eBay. If you don't like, sell it on eBay.

RE: Trophy Ridge Matrix
Stupid quesiton (I know, there aren't stupid questions, just stupid people who ask questions).
I have two RH Triphy Ridge Matrix sights (3-pinand 5-pin versions). Both have integrated sight levels. If I use the sight level, both sights would force me to rotate the bow a few degrees clockwise from true vertical. Is that normal?
