Need advice on pendulum sight
Any of yall that use a pendulum sight. I would like a bit of input on good and bad ones on the market. I have looked at the Vital Bow gear and the Cobra Extreme sight. I kind of like the VBG sight5 better but I have never had either one out of the pacage yet. I want a small pin dia. also. Any sugestions appreciated. Thank You

RE: Need advice on pendulum sight
I have a Cobra, and it has served me well. I have only had one problem with it. There is a small plastic piece that holds the pivot for the axel. It cracked on mine. Cobra replaced it free of charge, even paid shipping. They told me they have changed the plasic formula that they were using. Using a differentplastic now.. Anyway I put the new one on and no more problems.That was over a season and a half ago.I dont have experience with any other penedulums so I cant say on any others.
I sighted it in from 20 yards on the ground, and it was close from the stand. Did some final tweaking from the stand and it right on. With my Patriot Dually it is dead on from about 5 to just over 30 yards. It helps me not have to worry about distance, just concentrate on my form and shot. I have not missed a deer since I started using it.

i had one of the old cobra's and a keller. both workrd great. could shoot pine cones all day out to just over 30 yds. never did really like them though. went back to pins. just recomend getting one you can lock in to shoot from ground level if you have to. the guys i know that still shoot the newer keller wouldn't shoot any thing else. mr keller with help if you have a problem just give him a call.
