I've heard they're really good sights. I myself use an Impact Archery Omega XL. Brightest pendulum sight I've ever used. It has a dial adjuster to move sight and frame up and down.

The problem I am having is that the pins are not real bright, well not bright enough for me. I want a good sight but not gaudy! I don't think I ve seen the Impact Archery Omega XL , yet.

I use a Trophy Ridge Nitro Extreme and bought the light attachment and wow does it do the trick. I had always used horizontal pins and the verticals were different at first but I think I'm starting to really like them. I probably would have gotten the Impact if not the TR.

I have the Spott Hogg Real Deal and although i really like this sight for 3D ,I didn't care for it while hunting ,it just didn't hold the light all that well .You can buy the light to mount on the sight . I also have a Impact Archery sight in which I'd highly reccommend for hunting the Cosmic or the Trio are both very good sight's and I have to agree with Stone316_74 they are amongst the brightest in the market today and they have a larger pin which hold's the light well after shooting hour's .

I am upgrading to a Cobra Sidewinder LX from a Sidewinder because of the level and the more precise adjustment.I like the Sidewinder because the pins seem so small and I like how accurate it is.I can hit a dime at 12 yards pretty consistently.
