HEEEEEEELL no It's not worth it. I have had broken pins and what a pain to change them when they do break, and it won't stay where you set it. For the money I would definetly look for something else, like a dozen arrows and broadheads. I got fed up with mine and went to Walmart and got a cobra site for $19.99 and have been much happier with that one. I you like the in-line pins look at the HHA triple threat.

Bhunter, I've now done some research on the HHA triple threat and believe it's a better deal than the Matrix. In fact, after hearing the responses I'm planning on trying one out and putting my Matrix on my back up bow. It's 1/2 the $$ and looks more durable. We'll see how it works once it gets here.

I am very skeptical about them. I dont like not being able to crank down on my sight to make sure its good and tight. Its a good idea, and if they would make it all from metal, including the brittle pins they use, its would be a good one to have. There are just too many thing going wrong with them right now.

I too recommend the Copper John Dead Nuts sights. I just bought one this summer and must say its the best sight I ever owned. All metal, big, strong allen screws to snug down, and metal, fiber optic pins. Not to mention a nice, round pin guard to center your peep on. I highly recommend them.

I think the Copper John looks like a nice sight too. I've heard many good things about them. The bright pin guard is a nice feature. I'm buying one to put on after the season is over. Don't dare to make any changes now...

I have Copper Johns on both my bows. They won't be leaving anytime soon.
