They look pretty cool but I'm not sure I'd like the extra wieght on the front of my bow.

Not only that Nubo but it violates fair chase.
Rule 7) By the use of electronic devices for attracting, locating, or pursuing game or guiding the hunter to such game, or by the use of a bow or arrow to which any electronic device is attached.

Yet another product pushing the limits of fair chase. The idea is great in theory though.

I'll agree that it doesn't pass the "smell test" for Fair Chase ,
but how much different would it be from a bow mounted optical rangefinder or scope ? If it helps you take the game cleanly with one shot I can't really get uptight about that .
