Default extreme rt900 sight

I'm looking into buying one of these to put on a new switchback xt. Like everything else on the archery market today there are just to many good sight and produts out here, dies any one have one of these and does any one know what they are like.

This sight looks exactly like the Sword Sight. Go for the Sword Sight. It''s the same price as the RT900 and it comes with a light. They have great service. The light that came withmy sight finally went out (the bulb, not the batteries) and they sent me a whole new light instead of just a bulb! I shoot the Hunter version, the one that's like the RT900. They also have sights with a third axis, if you're into 3D shooting. AND, you can get pins that are .029, .019 or .010!

Though it doesn't have all the fine-tuning capabilities (like third-axis leveling and such) that my Spot-Hogg has, I honestly think I like this sight better. The pins are some of the brightest I've ever had, the circular ring around the pin housing is painted bright orange (painted or a sticker, I can't remember now and it's hanging outside on my deck where I've been shooting all afternoon)... anyway, the ring makes it nice to center inside your peep, and it's got a sight-level bubble as well.

Extremely tough steel pins hold the fiber optics in place, and those extend the length of the sight for added light-gathering capability. For its price ($75 around these parts), I don't think it can be beat.

If I had to choose a pure hunting sight today, I'd probably go with this sight over my $170 Spot-Hogg...

Monie, didn't see your post until after I hit the "send" key... That's some good info as well, and definitely something to consider when looking at this price range.
