I have a Keller Penedulum Site that I love, like everyone else said you can site it in at 20 yards for ground hunting or 0-30 in a treestand. I dont really use mine to much now a days sinc I started using my long bow now I dont worry about yardage I just point and shoot

I own a Prevator IV Pendulum sight. Want it?

It is hardly worth shipping. The dang thing bent. I don't have any idea how it happened. I don't abuse my bow. I think that I treat it as well as can be under normal hunting conditions.

I'll tell you one thing...bend a pendulum sight out of wack, then try to shoot something from up a tree. It will totally throw you off. The pendulum will swing not only back and forth, but the swing will also shift left to right.

In my case - I didn't notice the bend until I missed a deer, and I couldn't believe it. I put my pin right on it at 25 yards, and WHIFF! It took me a minute to see the bend. I noticed the pendulum swing SLIGHTLY to the side and it all registered. It sure doesn't take much to throw EVERYTHING out of wack.

I went imediately back to where I was staying, and replaced my sight with my old one, and get everything sighted in all over again. Wasted time. Wasted deer.

I paid $55 for the danged thing. Anyway...like I said....want it?

Actually kidding..I'm going to keep it to show everyone what happened to me.

Now - my buddy that recommended it to me, obviously did so because he loves his.....go figure that.

I ai at the same point with one pin from the ground or my stand, I guess it matters how fast your bow is, but I just don't see the need for one with my setup
