I've decided to upgrade my 3 pin to a 5 pin sights and want to hear any reviews about good sights to use in a variety of occasions. Hunting and target with the hunting likely to be in low light conditions. Help me out I don't want to waste my money.
I have an Axcel Vision, an AXT titanium and several others. For me it depends on which one my eye is seeing the best. I was totally committed to the Axcel, but in September last fall, I realized that for some strange reason, I was picking up the pins on the AXT better so I switched it to my go to bow and am still shooting it. I shoot the Axcell and others inside just fine but I'm still using the AXT outside. I also don't see yellow well so my sights are set up green, red, green, red, green and since I'm just a hunter, I use .019 pins all the way.
Code: Spot Hogg Hunter Hog-It. Got one on my PSE Diablo for spots and 3-D. Wish I could afford another one to put on my hunting bow. Sight is awesome! Well worth the money.
I love my trophy ridge react 5 all you do is sight in two pins and the others fall inline, and the glow ring around the housing is nice a bright!
Take a look at Montana Black Gold. You can custom order anything you want and it will be about the same price. I went with the Ascent Verdict custom ordered with 2 pins, much more open sight picture. I set my top pin at 20 and the bottom pin at 30 and also use it as a slider. You shoot through a chrono to pick your sight tape. I know you asked about a 5pin. But I really like this set up.
I love my Copper John sight. The thing is built like a tank. All metal and very bright pins. Even yellow is easy to see.
I will second the Trophy Ridge React. It's very easy to sight in and has performed flawless for me. I like the React because it will also adjust the 40, 50 & 60 yard pins to what they say is "Mathematically impossible to be wrong". So far, they aren't wrong. $127.03 on Amazon.

It never honestly occurred to me I'm kinda new to shooting and I didn't know I could thanks for the heads up
have added pins to several sights. if the pin has one of the long light gathering filaments attached it may take a minute or two to feed that in with the other pins filaments but is easy to do and beats the heck out of dropping a bunch of bucks on a new sight just to have more pins.
For a fixed five pin, I would look at the BlackGold Rush. You can customize the pin color and size. Easy company to work with and their pins are super bright. SCFox
Last year I wanted to upgrade to a 5 pin with a level without spending a fortune. Did a bunch of research and ended up buying the TRUGLO® Carbon Hybrid Micro™ Sight. Lightweight, microadjust, bright pins,...has worked great so far.
Agree. Even as a newbie this sight was easy to use and sight in for sure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I agree with the Trophy Ridge React 5 but go with the Pro version much nicer adjustments and lighter sight Trophy Ridge pins are really bright, but they also have a rheostat light to help if you are hunting in the ground blind. Sighting these in really are a breeze. I've had an Axcel Accutouch Carbon Pro, and I currently have an MBG Ascent on a bow and I'd put the Trophy Ridge Pro series sights up against any sight. Plus they can be had for like 1/2 MSRP if you look around.
