Better than the Cosmic!
 
I was checking out the Cosmic sight on the Impact website because I am considering buying one after all the good comments on this board when I noticed the Trio sight. The Trio appears to have the same ultra bright pin set-up as the cosmic in a three pin sight instead of an adjustable single pin. Amazingly I can' t find anything anywhere on the internet or this forum about the Trio sight. Maybe it' s a brand new item but I really can' t believe it hasn' t caused some buzz. Does anybody have any experience with this sight. I couldn' t even find anywhere that sells it or a price.

Try the SME Hybrid Bighorn it is as bright as the Cosmic and more rugged. Len turned me onto it! It is a great sight!

Impact updated their website for their 2003 catalog and the Trio is new. Has anybody out there seen it? I' m going to call Impact tommorrow.

i saw it in a mag it looks like it would be about the brightest fixed pin hunting sight out there.. but i bet the pins would be aweful bright to use for target.

Pup,

What do you mean by too bright for target shooting? Isn' t a bright sight go for everything? What exactly happens with a sight that is too bright, can you not see the ten ring? I' m not arguing with you, I really don' t know.

Cabelas, I don' t know about pup, but i tend to get a halo effect around small bright pins when used in sunlight. this makes the pins seem much larger than they are and blocks out the tenring.

Basically,this is an improved three pin cosmic.

Cab4T,
I have the Cosmic on my bow and am shooting 3 spot Fita league and it IS TOO BRIGHT! With the indoor flourescent lighting I can barely see the ten ring. Not so much Halo effect as just a big diameter fiber and very bright pin.I still use it cause I really am only practicing to hunt. I would think it would be great for outdoor 3D....but I don' t know...haven' t tried it. The 3 pin looks like a nice sight too.

Silentassasin,
SME no longer exists. The guy that held the patent on some of their stuff has a new co. called Vital Bow Gear. They do have some cool stuff.
