Default Need Advice on Pendulum sights

Some of you have read my post on missing a dandy. Well I would like to increase my odds by possibly getting a Pendulum sight. I have did some searches on other post but was looking for more thoughts. I usually hunt between 8ft to 25ft. Do they work well and how reliable have they been for you? Also do they work on the ground good also? My arrow speed through a chrony was 228fps with a 500 grain arrow.

Thanks in advance for you advice.

wooly; I think I have one in my bow box,e-mail me with mailing address and if I can find it I will send it to you. I have a scope now and don't use it.

it works good from 14' to 20' high up.it will work from the ground if you figure out where to hold.

I am not a hunter I am a whitetail population reduction specialest

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

I have a Keller on my bow and I love it.

Its dead on from 0-30 yards as long as you are at least 12 feet up

.Past 30 yards there are two other pins that drop in as soon as the elevation is right.

On the ground you can lock it into one of five slots for various yardages.

The only problem I see may be the speed thing. I don't know how many fps these sights need to work correctly so I would check with my pro shop to make sure.
